    Hi guys,

    by a manual movement of the z axis, the wire of the limit switch got caught and ripped a piece away from the housing of the z axis switch. I checked Robo3D for replacement, but the shop tells that they don't ship to Germany :-( are there any specifications known about the switch that I could search locally or from ebay?

    Thank you Mark,

    since there are many of these micro switches available, I was in doubt about the position of the holes to be compatible to the used ones. I will order them now. Thank you also for offer to ship them, but thats not necessary.

    They are all pretty much identical.
    I even examined some arcade control switches and those are close enough they could work even even though they are not identical.
