Capacitive sensor mount designed for Prusa i3 Hephestos.
Might work with other prusa i3, but only tested with hephestos.
Should be printed in ABS because of the extruder temperature, but i printed it in PLA nad also works fine (i guess because the air flow keeps it cool).
Tested with a chinesse 8$ capacitive sensor, that has 12V input and 6v output, so it doesn't need voltage divider, and the hole is ~20mm aprox. If it is a bit loose, the sensor can be tighted up with the nuts and washers it comes with.
If you have any questions or doubts about adding a capacitive sensor to a prusa i3 with Ramps 1.4 and Marlin, you are free to ask. ( you can also email me at zimzf23@gmail.com)
Unluckly Meshlab messed with the measures and converted it from milimeters to inches... needs to be scaled or exported a new .stl from the .dae or .skp (If using Simplify3D, it auto scales it)
