    Hope it goes well... in CAD always looks nice Lol

    Today machined the other 2 parts for the on-board probe assembly.
    Never had to do parts so small and with 3 side operations.
    Project is not finished yet and it's been a hard task lol
    Here's some pics and a short video of a test probing Z.

    Still got to paint all the parts black and 3D print the XYZ lettering in orange/red...

    Prototyping the connections and cable management to look as clean as possible.
    So that I don't even have to plug and unplug the USB to the probe.
    Looking sexy...

    Nice!, it will be interesting to find out if you run into any sensitivity issues when you run a probing command, I know someone who has done a similar setup but using a linear actuator rather than a motor, the stop/start forces as gentle as they are, cause his specific (similar style) probe to detect the movements as tip indications/false contacts with the part as the probe moves down ready to be used.

    Hi,
    My probe only gets connected when it gets to the final position.
    You can see that happening int these videos.
