I have been finding it difficult to adjust the Z axis end stop on my Prusa. I am normally able to get it to the correct ball park, but getting the adjustment of the bed to extruder spacing correct was taking some time. Each time I moved the end stop up or down I would move it too far.
So I came up with this solution.
It consists of two parts, the top plate holds the opto sensor and has a cable tie to hold the wires securely. The bottom plate mounts to the machine and fastens two bolts with spring and nuts to provide tension for the top plate. A bolt with a locking nut is used to move the opto sensor up and down by small amounts.
Full assembly instructions and the OpenScad and STL file can be found here on Thingiverse.
For anyone following this, I have uploaded some new files for it on Thingiverse.
