The Part:

This is just a simple end-stop for the upper limit of your Z-axis. It repurposes the original Z end-stop. Of course, you won't be needing the old Z endstop since installing a toolhead-mounted probe... You have installed a probe, right?

Some people use these so they can home their axes after a power failure without crashing into a half-printed part.

In my case, I just wanted an upper-bound end stop so that if I tried to home the printer from the maximum Z position, the Z hop from "safe_z_home" wouldn't crash it. I'm not sure how to implement that yet, but that's a problem for future Conlan.

It will work on either end of the gantry without any mirroring.

Printing:

Paint seams as pictured to avoid interference with fitment.

I designed the part with a 70° overhang in order to minimize bridging, because my printer makes prettier overhangs than bridges. I ended the name of that part file with "Sloped."

That said, if you prefer a flat bridge, select the file ending in "Bridged."

The part is designed to form an interference fit with the V-slots of the 2020 extrusion, and that is probably enough. However, for peace of mind, a M5x8 machine screw can be fit through to the extrusion as well. Drilling and tapping will be required in that case.

I produced the model and renders around SonOvaSailor's Ender 3 CAD model.
