This is a mounting kit for Z limit switches on an eShapeoko. It consists of a bracket that attaches to the front X plate and holds the limit switches, and two tabs mounted on the Z rail that serve to press the limit switches. The limit switches already include the M2 hardware to attach them to the bracket. All other hardware is included.
Please note that all three sheet metal parts come flat, and you will need to bend them in the shape shown. They are made of 0.9 mm stainless steel, and they have cut-outs to help with the beding, so it won't be difficult at all. Please pay attention to the orientation of the bracket when bending it. If bent the other way, it can be used on the opposite side of the Z rail.
When bending the tabs, try to make the bend in the cut-out area, but as close as possible to the free end. If the tabs end up too long, they may not clear the screw heads of your V-wheels, and you may have to trim them.
