Qidi X-Max 3 Digital Dial Indicator Holder

Digital Dial Indicator Holder for Qidi X-Max 3

I use two holders, because it is much easier to level the bed perfectly. But it should also be enough if you use only one holder.

The holders are designed for these dial gauges:

But it could well be that the devices of other manufacturers also work, since they are usually quite identical in construction. However, I have not tried this yet. The diameter of the opening is 8.1mm.

Four 6x3mm magnets are needed per holder to attach to the linear rods. I bought these:

The magnets do not need to be glued. Depending on how well the printer is calibrated, they can also just be clicked in.

I printed the holders in ABS. But PLA, PETG, etc. should also work.

Have fun leveling!

UPDATE: I have uploaded an improved version that fits a bit better. Now it really fits like a glove - provided the printer is well calibrated. However, supports are now needed to print the improved version.

Have Fun!
