Improved BLtouch mounts - CCT/Wanhao Di3/Monoprice Makerselect

By following the instructions in the video, these parts will allow you to use your BLtouch with:

• Auto levelling at the start of each print in only 30 seconds
• Accurate/symmetrical spacing of probing points
• Automatic adjustment for any build surface, regardless of thickness

The side mount is for use when the standard part cooling fan is in place.

The front mount is when a rear mounted cooling fan has ben installed, such as the Ciii cooler: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2004629

Edit: Two variations the front mount are now included for those who find the original design puts the probe too close to the bed. They are titled accordingly.

Here is the Onshape source file: https://cad.onshape.com/documents/e0e0da6ce62b20caffcac2bc/w/83f1f416b23bf8ed753727b8/e/fffd510243b366f72deaaf54

Editing the value for 'plane 1' controls the height the sensor sits at relative to the metal mounting surface. My original design for 6mm. A smaller number moves it up, a larger number moves it down. Now you can edit to whatever offset you like.
