Omron Microswitch Z probe

thingiverse

A type of microswitch based Z probe that will work on pretty much any type of reprap type 3d printer that uses standard nozzles. make sure there are two wires , one ground one signal going from your control board. an endstop is fine. wire the microswitch to Normally Closed (NC). pin closest to the switch should be ground, pin furthest away the signal you want to do. test it with a multimeter before testing. only probe when cold so you don't melt this thing. mount by snugging it directly onto the nozzle, having the probe sit directly on your heat block. make sure it is snug when you probe. add to the configuration a probing height of 40mm at first, to make sure you don't accidently ram it into bed. tested in klipper with PROBE and offset calibration for 25.577mm of offset but YMMV.
