1) If you're running SoliPrint, be sure you re-run Z-offset calibration. In fact, you'll probably have to do this with any software you're using, slic3r, etc...

2) The body seems to be just a hair too thin, causing the endstop to sit angled, instead of facing straight down.

3) When pushed back up into UP position, sometimes the probe won't be pushed fully up, or it will be pushed up and slightly pushed towards the back of the printer. One of my first prints with the new arm was ruined because the endstop button was hitting the extruded plastic by the tiniest amount. On mine, it looks like the nub on the left arm is slightly out of shape causing it to not fully snap into the UP position.

Before I make any changes to the .stl I'd love it if someone else, with a Workbench or Apprentice, could print one of these and test it out. Our Workbench circles are imperfect and some of our printed dimensions might be off, so I want to be sure when I change something it'll work for everyone with a properly calibrated machine.

Please let me know if this works or doesn't work for an Apprentice, I don't own one, but from the picture the arms look the same.

Otherwise, when I have some free time this week I can get a model in SketchUp to hand around.

Edit: Getting the .stl ready right now. Printed once and will post soon, making a few changes.

I am betting all the parts are the same. I honestly do not know why they would not be.

It makes sense.  I can't remember the last time i had to level my prusa.  That bed is overweight and moves a lot more than the SD.

Also if you have digi pliers just have them measuring piece with each pic, this way I can get it as good as possible
