You can watch a video that demonstrates its functionality by navigating to the "Thing Files" tab above (open with VLC Media Player).\nThe holder is specifically designed to connect affordable Chinese dial gauges, such as this one http://www.ebay.com/itm/191381928182?_trksid=p2060353.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT , to the extruder, allowing for extremely accurate bed leveling in a very short amount of time without any electronic components.\nOnce the mount is installed, the dial gauge can be easily removed and readded within seconds by simply pressing it inside (no screwdriver required), minimizing weight added to the extruder during printing.\nThe mount itself attaches securely to the extruder using two long M3 screws and remains in place. It's extremely lightweight.\nThis writer has printed one in PETG, with a 0.3mm layer height and 30% honeycomb infill, and it operates flawlessly.\nNaturally, no support material is required for printing.
