About this 3D model

This is a mount for a common mechanical switch. If your endstops are simple mechanical switches, this is an easy way to attach them to the Cupcake's opto-endstop mount points. They do require a slightly longer flag for the X-Axis, as the Opto's interrupt point was below the screw. You will need: -2x M3x16 screws and nuts (20mm may be better) like those that came with the Cupcake. -2x M2x10 screws and nuts - I would recommend getting a screws to match your switch's width. -2x Limit switch - There are lots of manufacturers for these. I got mine at a surplus store. The mount holes in these are different distances apart, but most I've seen are 2mm.
