• v0.2 sensor carrier

    * Removed the 3 poles of the holes in the back that accommodate the pins of the more common version

    * Adjusted the hole for the TCRT5000 head

    * Moved the words to the bottom of the part

    * Added a hole and a space for a nut to properly mount the sensor in the carrier

    The carrier uses a M2x6 bolt and nut to secure the sensor inside. A washer can be made from cutting off a 1mm section of PTFE tubing. I stacked a normal metal washer on top, so the screw head doesn't just go through the PTFE washer. 

    I made a v1.0 after some more adjustments of the TCRT5000 head hole

    Made a case for the sensor.

    I plan on modelling a bracket later on and combining both the bracket and the carrier in the final version.

    Pictured here is the v0.0.1 of the carrier, a v0.1 has been released which may or may not work with the more common version of the sensor.
