Printing Tips
This project was designed to be very simple to build, low cost and an easy beginner project. Once you solder the switch directly to the board you will need to configure the software with your OctoPrint URL and API Key. After it is configured simply burn it to the board and you are ready to go. Can easily be completed in an hour or less (once the model is printed).
The case was designed so you can zip tie it. The nice advantage to that is if you have multiple printers you can swap the runout sensor as needed without having one for each printer.

When it comes to hardware, I rely heavily on Bambu Lab 3D printers. My A1 Mini https://rb.gy/uofj5 is a staple in my office, while my fleet of X1C Carbons https://rb.gy/9r2az ensures rapid and high-quality production. #ComissionsEarned which help support my free model development.
