DIY tool length probe was created by jvalencia
I think this is my last addon, my machine is complete now :lol:

I wanted a detachable probe, so I created 2 pieces. One goes inside the machine and the other is the probe itself.

The configuration for UCCNC is:
  • Probe Pin: 10
  • Active Low: checked

How to proceed:
  1. Zero the Z axis
  2. Click the tool probe button

Other macros use G00 G53 after probing to retract the Z axis. This works if you home your axis first, but I never home my axis so I removed it. With this macro there is no need to home the axis, just Zero it before probing.

I've found a bug in my macro and I've fixed it. Now it should work properly with any probe height.
