Photon Engraver - Mounting plate for microswitch endstop

thingiverse

Mounting plate designed specifically for 13mm width microswitches commonly used in DVD chassis types, ideal for use with Isolt's Photon Laser Engraver or any other CNC assembly incorporating these drives. Mounting holes are M2 with a precise spacing of 47mm. Here are the .STL files for several modified parts I created during my Photon build, which may be useful to others: I widened the external width of my engraver to 130mm, so I increased the width of the door and cover strips accordingly. Additionally, I extended the lower vent downwards, allowing the bottom coroplast to slide up to it flat. When using a DVD chassis similar to mine, I found that the V mount placed the laser too far forward. To correct this issue, I reduced the depth of the V mount and included a flat plate for a block heatsink mounted laser. I omitted the additional 12V socket and power switch from my design, so I created blanking plates for the holes. I've also included a clip that attaches to the left-hand sideplate for this laser driver: https://tinyurl.com/ycgch9ra
