It could work with any kinds of bed materials, such as glasses, woods, metals, and so on. I has:- Self-test : The push pin operates itself three times to test when the power is on. Alarm : The LED light blinks if a problem found on a self-test or on an operation. BLTouch consists of Atmel ATtiny13A, solenoid, and a push pin. High-precision Type Sensor : Using Hall Effect ➡ Not optical, either proximity(inductive or capacitive) one. The BLTouch needs to be set at 8.3mm (+/-0.2) above the nozzle. I believe the newer Smart BL Touch has a 8.5mm distance, from shoulder to tip of probe. This simple 3D Printable gauge should help you achieve this. Remember that this BLTouch gauge block will need to be set onto a sheet of paper, (the distance of the nozzle tip above the print bed. I do not own or have a BLTouch so I have not been able to test this BLTouch gauge block in a real world situation. 20% infill is OK with 4 layers top to prevent any infill bumps passing through to the top surface. A light sanding to smooth the top could help, but keep checking the height of the BLTouch gauge block.
