TAZ 5 - Mitutoyo 148-202 Mount

thingiverse

This is a mount to replace the stock TAZ 5 z-endstop, based on the design featured in this forum post: https://forum.lulzbot.com/viewtopic.php?t=3477. I appreciated the simplicity of only needing to remove the stock thumbscrew and flipping the z-endstop switch on its existing mounting holes. When I printed the original design that I downloaded, my 148-202 micrometer head didn't have enough travel (0.25") to engage the z-endstop switch. Therefore, I added 0.150" to the thickness of the base. At the same time, I added a clamping feature for holding the micrometer head tighter. The hole profile for the threaded insert is the profile specified on McMaster-Carr. This mount should work for most micrometer heads that have a 0.25" diameter area for clamping.
