Touch Probe Preserver

A ring with a diameter larger than the body of your 3D XYZ touch probe, that attaches to the sensing stylus, making the probe activate before a crash whenever your fat finger presses the wrong button. I won't judge. My fingers want to press all the wrong buttons.

Designed to fit the generic “V6 3D Touch Probe” popular for small CNC:s like my Makera Carvera Air. If your probe or stylus is different from mine, ping me in the comments or [make a variant in OnShape](https://cad.onshape.com/documents/5d04cb10b63afa447532619d/w/9ecfd164d4f8115366c02e93/e/39bc7406eb305d64e25ad428). The OD and ID are parametric, making simple mods easy :)

Your CNC controller must be setup to stop on detection even during travel moves, and your probe must be active and plugged in for this to work. It won't help in all situations, like if the ring fits under an overhang, or if the cable gets squished. But it's already saved me a bunch of times.🥶It will unfortunately reduce the reach of the stylus by about 8
