This is a simple mount to hold a dial indicator, used to help tram the bed. (or to show how warped it is) Can be used with the Petsfang2 cooling system.

This will mount with 2 M3 x 20mm screws to the std 40x10mm extruder cooling fan. Dial mount stem on my dial indicator is 9.5mm. It's a press fit into the mount. It should work on any of the CR-10 and clones that use a 40mm fan. Can be left in place when not in use.

Please try it on other bots and let me know if it fits. I will update the description with any bots that fit. If you need a different size cutout for your dial indicator let me know. From what I can tell the standard DI stem is size 9.5mm or 8mm.

If you have a bed that sags in the middle try my Low Profile Bed Wedge to help lift up the center.

Comments suggestions welcome.

Update: Added 8mm stem version Update2: Added 4.75mm stem version

PETG or ABS would probably be best. I printed in PLA for the test and it seems to be good enough!
