    Lightbulb Who want to make a touch probe?

    A while ago I made my own touch probe, but didn't post anything about it here.
    Since this thread appeared...... http://www.cnczone.com/forums/showth...threadid=28226 a few people have been asking me how I made it.

    The original idea came from another website, which for some reason I can no longer find. So thanks to that guy, and if anyone has the url, please post it here.

    I'm still looking for a lot of the files that I used in making the probe, but I will find them all and post them here. Every part for the probe was cut using Gcode produced by 10Bulls' CamBam.

    For now here's a few pics.... I'll add more stuff as I find it and as I get time.

    I hope it useful to someone.

    Regards Terry...
