X5S Dial Indicator Mount

thingiverse

I created this to set the z screws at the same height. To get started, you'll need a 1/4-20 X 1" screw and nut, or its metric equivalent with an 11mm diameter across the flats of the hex nut. Follow these steps: Remove the fan shroud with the fan still in place. Install the nutPlate behind the fan instead of the original nuts. Reinstall the fan shroud. Take out the upper left-hand and lower right-hand fan screws. Pull the nut into the indicatorBracket with the screw. Install the indicatorBracket in the two fan screw holes. Home the printer, install the indicator, and you're good to go. I discovered that my bed was already very close, but the wheels on the extruder carriage were running out by 0.010" (0.254mm). This is another issue I need to address with this machine!!!
