Edit: New version uploaded with the holes for the hot end spaced further apart, holes for M3 nuts for the CR-Touch/BL-Touch, and compatibility with the Embrace Making 5015 Cooling Fan Kit.

This model is a replacement for the metal mount with a strain gauge on the CR-10 Smart and also a mount for a CR-Touch probe. Because this is in direct contact with the heatbreak radiator, I recommend printing it out of a rigid and heat-resistant material like glass-fiber-reinforced ABS or resin. That being said, I've had a PETG-printed part in contact with this radiator for months and it's been fine. There are several of caveats to this part so PLEASE READ:

  • The stock mainboard on the CR-10 Smart DOES NOT SUPPORT A CR-TOUCH OR BL-TOUCH. This will only work if you are using an aftermarket mainboard like the BigTreeTech SKR Mini e3. If you get this specific mainboard, you can use this set of mounts.
  • I have only tested this with a Micro Swiss All-Metal Hotend and this adapter. It may be compatible with the stock hot-end but this is un-tested. Please post a make or comment if you test this and it works.
  • As you can see in my 3rd picture, the included CR-Touch cable is not long enough to reach from the gantry to the mainboard. This is why I recommend getting the Easy Swap PCB Kit which will allow you to connect the CR-Touch to the gantry board instead.

If you want a more complete (but closed-source) solution than this for multiple upgrades to the CR-10 Smart, I recommend this adapter kit.
