Official X Endstop Support - Update Preview

Modified Y endstop

With the huge variety of XY joints with different dimensions (printed, sheet metal, milled, SLM, 6mm, 9mm, normal, flipped, 3 holes, 4 holes) paired with vastly different toolhead designs and switch placements, there's no chance to support toolhead mounted switches officially.

I will implement a highly adjustable, gantry-mounted X endstop that can work with all toolheads.

The switch holder will be a 2-piece design that can be secured anywhere with 2 screws along the Y extrusion. The second part will provide great adjustability in the X direction with 2 other independent screws.

Other than physically setting up this point, Y homing first in Klipper will be a must to home X at the correct Y coordinate. A guide for this will be provided on the gantry's GitHub.

The pic isn't the final design, it's just a modified Y endstop.
