Has anyone used an XYZ touch probe that works with both built in (no special macros) gsender probe on an X carve machine?
I’m using the stock z probe from xcarve, and it sucks.
Looking to try a full on xyz touch plate vs just a z probe, or at least find a better z probe than the xcarve one
             
            
              
              
              
            
            
           
          
            
            
              I don’t have an X-Carve but you should not have a problem upgrading your Z only probe. The X-Controller looks like a nice controller and you only have to change two wires to upgrade.
Both Sienci’s regular and auto touch plates should work fine although the AutoZero may not be a first class citizen if you move away from gSender.
Personally, I have Sienci’s regular touch plate and it is much better than the Z only one that I started with on my old 3018.

I ended up ordering the Openbuilds xyz touch plate last night - $35 on sale.
