Shapeoko 2 Compact Limit Switches

thingiverse

For Shapeoko 2 side gantry plates. Works with both X and Y carriages. Could be easily modified to fit other machines. Parts required to construct: 2 x 15 mm M3 SOCKET HEAD HEX SCREW 2 x 8 mm M3 SOCKET HEAD HEX SCREW 4 x M3 NUT 2 x "22/18 GAUGE FULLY INSULATED .250 FEMALE SPADE CRIMP CONNECTOR TERMINAL" Steps: Press fit the nuts in the hexagon holes - bolt a nut into each of the hexagon holes by holding the nut with pliers then cranking the bolt down with an allen key. Make sure the nut is aligned with the shape of the hexagon hole before seating it. The nuts should be pressure fit and not come out. Alternatively you could probably use a press or vice to seat the nuts in the holes. Press fit the 8 mm socket head in the circular countersunk holes - Use same technique as above but hold the nut with the pliers so the bolt head sinks into the hole when you crank it with an allen key. Install the 3D printed limit switch mount onto the Shapeoko 2 gantry with nuts (and washers optionally). Install the limit switch onto the limit switch mount using the 15 mm screws.
