i think it will allow you to jog left even if the switch is pressed. i
know it's dumb but i think it only looks at the switch when it is homing
itself. I could be wrong.
if not i can certainly bring a replacement but i'll have to see the old
one first. or check those plastic 3d printers from 3dsystems that are
kicking around.

Hey Adam,
I was about to cut a stencil on the laser when I noticed the cut head wa
s bumping up against the left side and stalling the motor. I looked and
sure enough the steel leaf of the switch was twisted downward. I was a
ble to jog the head left while holding the limit switch down so I assume
the unit needs to be replaced. Do you know if there are any spares at
sudo? I have some from open source hardware that look similar but didn'
t want to attempt taking off the rail to get at it and making it worse.
Cheers,
Hol
