Attention:
You might want to consider this holder instead: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2360242
---------------------
There are many sensor brackets for
...Zeig mehr the Anet A8 available. I designed these simply to have the sensor as close to the nozzle as possible. It is also small and light.
I got the idea of placing the bracket between the heat sink and fan from this design: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1798669. Thanks!
I've enclosed files for a 12mm or 18mm proximity sensor.
Note: The toothed washers that normally come with the sensor are not needed for this bracket.
Please let me know if you have a problem with the design so I can improve it if necessary.
Also please post a picture with comments if you have made one.
Thanks.
Leo

Here are the settings to use with the Skynet3D V2.x Firmware:
<h5>Offsets for 12mm sensor:</h5>
define X_PROBE_OFFSET_FROM_EXTRUDER -22 // X offset: -left +right [of the nozzle]
define Y_PROBE_OFFSET_FROM_EXTRUDER -36 // Y offset: -front +behind [the nozzle]
define Z_PROBE_OFFSET_FROM_EXTRUDER 0 // Z offset: -below +above [the nozzle]
define LEFT_PROBE_BED_POSITION 25
define RIGHT_PROBE_BED_POSITION 195
define BACK_PROBE_BED_POSITION 170
define FRONT_PROBE_BED_POSITION 20
<h5>Offsets for 18mm sensor:</h5>
define X_PROBE_OFFSET_FROM_EXTRUDER -26 // X offset: -left +right [of the nozzle]
define Y_PROBE_OFFSET_FROM_EXTRUDER -40 // Y offset: -front +behind [the nozzle]
define Z_PROBE_OFFSET_FROM_EXTRUDER 0 // Z offset: -below +above [the nozzle]
define LEFT_PROBE_BED_POSITION 25
define RIGHT_PROBE_BED_POSITION 194
define BACK_PROBE_BED_POSITION 170
define FRONT_PROBE_BED_POSITION 20
Not sensor related but the Z homing speed was too fast for my taste. To have it move slower use:
define HOMING_FEEDRATE_Z (4*60)
