Dial Indicator Replicator 2X

thingiverse

This is a tool for the Replicator 2x. You use it with a Dial Indicator, I used a analog one. When you shall use it then you must start the leveling script on the replicator in the menu. Then cancel it after the first position. Then you got the build plate up and you can start measure the built plate. You need to calibrate it at the height you want it to be. The easy way is to measure the nozzle height in one spot that you want, like 0.1mm and then move the dial indicator to that spot, then zero it. Now you have it calibrated and you can use the Jog function in the menu and move it all around the build plate and measure. Start with the positions you have the screws. Go over the built plate a couple of time and you should be okey. P.S if you mirror the object you can put it on the other side to. The STL is only for the right side of the extruder/nozzle. Instructions I made this with 123D Design. Make the part with 4 or more shells and you can have low % of infill. The critical part is the arm that goes over the fan. If you have more shells it will be more rigid and not break. I did print this with 10% infill and 4 shells. Also you need to use support to print this. **** I made version 2 of this. The change is the lower clip is smaller gap in, so it will hook into the carriage better.
