I designed this project as a solution to the ineffective, inacurate, and costly probes out in the market today.   My project uses a LM393 Dual Differential Comparator IC and will output in Digital and/or Analog This type of sensor can detect distance on any surface with high speed and accuracy, and is not affected by electrical current, print bed temperature, ambient temperature, dust, or humidity. I've designed this to be used as a Z stop probe, yet with a simple tweak in the design and adoption of a spring, this prble can also be used as an endstop Here's a list of parts required inn this project: 1x Optical Sensor1x Step down Buck converter2x M3 x 12mm screw1x M3 x 15mm screw1x small washer1x #14 gauge body piercing (one end chucked into a drill and sanded down to form a cylinder)Jumper Cable Pin Header ConnectorsWires   You will also need: A soldering Iron A pair of Wire Strippers A set of Allen Hex Keys And a Crimper for the Header Connectors
