Solidoodle Workbench Z-probe Remake

thingiverse

This is a redo of the Solidoodle Workbench Z-probe designed specifically to accommodate a different end stop switch, one that provides a more precise and consistent measurement while keeping slurry clear of the mechanisms. The original switch was a straightforward affair with its metal lever removed. I have reengineered this one using a specific switch available on digikey: http://www.digikey.com/product-detail/en/0/SW1395-ND This design should be easily modifiable back to the original form by simply taking measurements and making necessary adjustments! The piece currently requires a bit more space in my holder, so some adjustments will need to be made for a looser fit - shaving it down may no longer be necessary. In due time, I aim to develop an auto-deployable probe of my own that will never require the user to recall where they placed the Z-probe again!
