Folger Tech 2020 Limit Switch Mount Replacement

Description

Replacement For Supplied Folger Tech Limit Switch Mounts. After Sitting For 6 Months, When I Went To Use My Printer, I Found All 3 Mounts Were Split Due To Over-Stressing The Plastic And Switches Not Staying In Place. Not Seeing The Files Readily Available And Seeing Room For Improvement, I Quickly Cobbled Up These Parts. The Original Parts Were Long With Numerous Holes And The Switch Was Often Mounted Out Significantly Away From The Rail. This Causes A Long Moment Arm And Requires More Torque On The Screws To Hold In Place. These Mounts Center The Switch Directly Over The Rail Making For A Shorter More Solid Mount. Screws Are Mounted On Either Side Of Switch/Rail. Hex Recesses Were Added To Hold Nut In Place For Easier Assembly. Maybe Later, I'Ll Modify One To Add Adjustment To The Z Travel As That Is Most Crucial. Update. Finally Created The Z Axis Adjustment Found Here: Https://Www.Thingiverse.Com/Thing:3490367
