Description
A table mounted touch probe that accommodates bits up to .25" and V-bits up to 3/8". Not recommended for .5"+ surfacing bits. Requires a .4mm conductive surface and construction of a wire cage. I used the V1 Engineering .4mm touch plate and soldered steel bristles onto a wire ring as shown in photos. Probes at an offset of 15mm above table surface at 38mm Up/Y and 10mm in/X. But 2x check your offset distances. I ended up at 14.7mm in the end.
