CNC 3018 Z Probe support

thingiverse

Here is a small bracket for CNC 3018 to bring a Z Probe plug and the spindle/laser jumper in front of the CNC.Having a plug for Z Probe allows you to use different kind of probes (just plug the probe you need). There is a left and and right version of the bracket depending on which side you want to put it. This bracket can propably used for other mini CNC since there is a 2020 profile in front. **Wiring** One pin of the plug need to be connected to GND pin and the other on the A5 pin of the motherboard. The wires are meant to be placed in the bottom groove of the 2020 profile. PS: You must solder wires perpendicular to the pins (not like me :/) as on the picture, else it will be too high **Material needed** + 2 M3 x 6mm screw [Affiliated link](https://www.banggood.com/custlink/vmmK2kb4uK) + 2 M3 t sliding nut [Affiliated link](https://www.banggood.com/custlink/DDDG2ks4cK) + 1 DC 5.5x2.1mm Power Socket [Affiliated link](https://www.banggood.com/custlink/DmvKqMQeyl) + 1 * SPDT 2 Pins Mini toggle rocker switch [Affiliated link](https://www.banggood.com/custlink/DDG3UzQe2e) + 1 or more DC 5.5x2.1mm Male connector [Affiliated link](https://www.banggood.com/custlink/mKmmUMQghM) for Z Probe **Tips** If you need to crimp dupont connectors, there is a good tutorial on https://www.instructables.com/id/Dupont-Crimp-Tool-Tutorial/ If you need a crimping tool, you can use this model with **SN-2 jaws** (very important, other jaws will crush your connector) https://aliexpress.com/item/32827353250.html
