No connectors yet, I am not sure why they were not in the same box.
OMG the connectors got delivered 4 days ago, to my old address. How did that even happen? Half the order came to the right place and the other half went to a 4-5 year old address.
I ordered more…grrrrrr, Magically the correct address is already in there. Go figure.

I will make a post here when they are ready. Plugs are in LA right now so I hope they get here by the end of the week.

Interested in building a Zen table. Should I wait for these boards or find an alternative. Not in a hurry, just wondering if these will be available soon.
I got on the email list and was able to get one. Took 2 tries because I waited too long for the first one. But I think he puts some up every month or less
I have them and can put them up if you are ready. The new firmware does not seem to let us home like we used to.
To get around that I just cut and filed my endstop flags, not a huge deal.
The real fix is get the firmware adjusted (big maybe), or make adjustable endstop flags (I need a bit more time to get to this).

Do you know what the cost will be?
Should be a little less than the tindie listing because I am not using genuine ESP32’s.
I would grab one if you put them up
I added them to the Zen section.

Thanks for putting them up Ryan. Not to hijack, but any estimate on the endstops/hardware kits being back in stock? I’m buying up parts for my table, would love to grab most from you but want to make sure parts incoming aren’t on indefinite hold.
I don’t right now. I need to find a new source for the endstops. I had the previous ones made with split wires for ease of use.
If you want to grab the rest of the stuff from the shop I should have a few previously loved ones I can throw in.
Would these work for the end stops?
Also, I bought one of the boards. Do they come with Fluid NC installed?
I suggest you use mechanical endstops because the optical ones get dirty easily with chips, I used these and everything works fine:
Another option…
Requires firmware changes, am not clear on pros and cons. No moving parts that can break off seems nice.
We do not use these on the ZenXY because you can hear them clicking for hours on end.
The only issue I see is size, most are fairly large but if you can find small enough ones they would be great, actually.
I think so I need to take a closer look a little later.

I thought the end stops are only used for homing?
I’m assuming that the board you are selling has firmware installed. Is it the WIFI version. If this is correct, I should be able to power it and connect from my phone or laptop?
On a Zen you tend to use every available mm so your mechanical switches will continually click.

Has the webui been updated to save changes yet by chance ?
It’s been a while since I have jumped back into getting my fluidnc board to home.
