Prusa i3 adjustable Z-end-stop - mounts on X carriage

thingiverse

I designed this adjustable Z-Axis endstop for a Prusa i3 box frame to ensure precise and easy adjustment of the Z-axis. This design builds on the successful concept found in the adjustable endstop of the printrbot plus, which I highly respect. Its user-friendly interface, simplicity, and accessibility were key influences when creating this solution. It is compatible with most Prusa i3 designs due to its modular design, and it should function smoothly without any complications. This unique setup leverages existing parts like standard M5 motor mount screws on the X axis motor by extending their length for improved stability. Furthermore, a supplementary M3 screw can be easily adjusted up/down for precise control over Z-axis positioning. For mounting, the design does not demand any custom-made endstop switch holder, allowing users to employ the standard prusa i3 components, or similar configurations, thereby eliminating extra requirements and ensuring seamless integration.
