Description
a quick design to mount my dial indicator to the back of the Ender's X carriage.
Rear mounting because I run a bullseye and BLtouch in front which makes mounting an issue.
I wanted something that was easy on and off. so it's using an old hard drive magnet to hold it to the screws on the V slot wheels.
the "button" helps to level the gauge as the HD magnet pulls it out of alignment.
This was custom fit for my printer and gauge (and the magnet I had laying around) but it should fit a gauge with an 8mm stem and any carriage with the wheel span of 42.5mm.
screws are #4 x1.5in pan head as are the nut catches
If anyone shows interest I can adjust it to fit different magnets
