Dear all,

this thing is a filament-sensor. The micro-switch I used seemed larger as most others - after trying some of the other nice designs I decided to create my own to accomodate the larger switch.
I can recommend to use octoprint and use the plugin "Filament Sensor Reloaded". Please see here for useful installation-instructions:

**Features**

- micro-switch gets clipped-in. no screws required
- in addition 2 screw-hols are available
- I added a small-cover in the area of the roller-ball to ensure it can't not slip away

feedback welcome

thanks
