Dial Indicator mount for Rep 2

thingiverse

UPDATE - I have altered the design a bit and reuploaded. In my recent move somehow I lost my printout of this leveler and needed to print a new one out. I took the opportunity to fix a few things. -Moved magnet holes closer to base for firmer hold on gantry -Made caps larger so they fit in holes better -Changed the look a bit, I wasn't digging the boxiness. I know there are plenty of these out there, but I wasn't perfectly happy with any I saw, plus I designed mine specifically around the dial indicator I picked up here.http://www.harborfreight.com/1-inch-travel-machinists-dial-indicator-623.html There are two tiny slots that you can slide small .25" magnets into, put the small caps on the backside and glue everything in place. Helps to ensure that the mount stays firmly on the gantry. Having this little setup has dramatically eased the leveling process for me Instructions Rep 2 PLA, 2 wall 10% infill Printed no supports. EZPZ. When using run whatever leveling script you use on your rep2 to bring the bed/head into the correct position, adjust the head as normal directly over one of the springs, then use the dial indicator directly over that position to mark your "level point". Exit out of the leveling script then just move the gantry over the other screw/spring levelers and ensure they are leveled to the same point on your dial indicator. You can then check your bed all over to ensure its leveled accurately. This will also help to point out the flaws of the stock acrylic bed if you are still using that.
