Endstop switch does not touch screw on slider #10

I have the same issue that you do - the hole at the top of the carriage It looks like Johann is leaving that hole empty: On Wed, Jun 12, 2013 at 8:57 AM, Brandon Heller notifications@github.comwrote:

That makes sense - when you have auto-leveling, the screw just removes Z travel. I'd still like to add the adjustable endstop to compare against auto-leveling, so I think I'll make and then send a slightly offset carriage hole. The pulley is ~10mm and the SHCS head is ~5mm, which gives the 2mm or so of motion needed for them to match up. Joey, are there any other issues you've come across? Sounds like you're close to done, too. |
I have a few smallish issues written down that I will add to github One question for you actually - I saw your Cerberus carriage adapter photos On Wed, Jun 12, 2013 at 9:55 AM, Brandon Heller notifications@github.comwrote:

I didn't actually test motion with the ziptie closures, as you need a complete frame to prevent a singular frame_top tensioner from twisting down under load, and I didn't have that a few weeks ago. Motion is next for me too. I think zipties to secure the belts would work fine, but the zipties might compromise a bit of Z or create an interference. The next ball joint adapter I print will integrate a tiny tensioner and use printed slots that are a negative of the GT2 belt profile. I used this technique for tensioning my PBJr (XL?) belts and it works great. No zipties makes it faster to install and adjust, and since the belt will be under tension, backlash in the negative profile doesn't even matter. I also think an open-belt option is the way to go, for the flexibility you get. |
Anyone else have this problem? I'm using a SHCS on the stock slider, with ball rails.
Of course it's an easy fix, shifting the holes on the endstop piece or increasing its thickness or moving the hole on slider over, but I'd like to verify that there isn't something obvious that I'm missing.
