Description
This is a remix of rativiv's design with LED mount, low profile and slightly bigger curve (optimized for ABS shrinkage).
Marlin config:
X_PROBE_OFFSET_FROM_EXTRUDER 7
Y_PROBE_OFFSET_FROM_EXTRUDER 50
Z_PROBE_OFFSET_FROM_EXTRUDER 0
changes:
-Low profile. BLtouch is very light, you don't need the upper part, plus my wanhao bearing mount does not have "free" holes on the top side. So I cut the top part and made it compatible with most (all? some? ) belt tension mods.
-Curve is larger, tested to print OK in ABS.
-There was a 1layer gap before the bltouch mount which I fixed. (strange - maybe autodesk messed it up).
-The BLtouch mount is moved upwards. There is more room to play with how low it sits. You will probably need washers and/or nuts though for the original BLtouch. Rativiv's design was almost spot on for me.
-The BLtouch mount has been slightly reworked so it can easily be printed when the model is sideways. Holes are the same.
-optional LED mount
-I altered the model around the fixing (bottom) holes to print better in my printer with 0.4mm nozzle.
LED mount
For 5mm LED with common LED holder (http://tomsha.com/shop/images/LED-Mount-1pc.jpg).
You can also hot glue the LED without any base.
File details:
noLED_LowProfile : no LED mount
2xLED_LowProfile : with LED mount
2xLED_wShade_LowProfile : with LED mount, with bottom/top/side shade
Diffuser: A small diffuser for the "wShade" part, useful if you LEDs are too bright, your bed is reflective and your camera sucks.
ps.
BLtouch on the photos is the original, May 2017 version, "Smart v1.0"
