GIRO.remix - 40mm Fan BLTouch Mount

GIRO.remix - BLTouch Mount

General

This is a remix of paul0's BLTouch mount for the TEVO Tarantula. This BLTouch mount must be mounted infront of the 40mm fan. Also be clear to mount the metal pin of the BLTouch exactly on the same position on the X-Axis like the position of the nozzle to avoid X-Axis offsets.

I added a cuboid to the back of paul0's mount to assure that the cables of the BLTouch will never hit the fan and destroy the cables. It is a very nice fitting if your Tarantula is well calibrated. If it's not then take a piece of sanding paper and make some additional space for the cables. They should move a bit in the position where they should be set into. Make sure not to destroy your cables while mounting the BLTouch. To mount the BLTouch you will need M3 screws and M3 nuts.

I also enlarged the wall of the holes where the M3 screws have to be screwed into the Chimera because I noticed that these areas tend to break if you screw the screws too tight to the hotend.

History

Version 1.2

Added a Firebay Peanut Fanduct BLTouch mount.

Version 1.1

After some feedback I added additional support structures to improve the stability of the different BLTouch mountings.

Version 1.0

This was the first creation of the BLTouch mount.

Printing

I would highly recommend to use exactly 2 perimeters because otherwise some areas aren't going to get really solid. Print with a lower speed, for example 30 mm/s, to get a more accurate printing.

Additional Information

Let me know if there are any kind of problems with the BLTouch mounting. I will try to help and if neccessary correct the designs. I appreciate any kind of feedback to these mountings.

If you like my work and find it really usefull then I would be very happy if you give me a small tip as an appreciation for my work.
