Don't know about that one. But I did 3d print one that seems like it will work
pretty well. I haven't really used it much other than a few tests. (I’m still
working on The machine it is intended for.) The design is based on this touch probe
on thingiverse. https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:721620 I made a flat base to
replace the original top. Attached is a Freecad file of the base I made. Then for
a touch surface I turned a steel piece 1.25" diameter with a 1/4-20 threaded
stud on the bottom, and honed the top surface smooth and flat.

And that, Andy, looks like it would work better than some I've paid $75
for. Neat idea.

Hello!
I need to add tool length sensor to a Biesse retrofit. So I wanted to ask the
audience to share their experience of where to get one.
I found this:

Any thoughts on how good/bad it is?
