        <title>Microswitch lever woes; two levers broken on my Funbot</title>
        <description> Wasn&#039;t sure where to ask, but the Y and X switches on my Funbot just broke right off during assembly. They&#039;re the makerbot style, they still work but now the axes can&#039;t hit the end stop. 

I really don&#039;t want to replace perfectly functional switches for a cheap tin lever. Maybe extend the endstop actuator points on the machine to compensate and still hit? 

Also was not sure where to post this so I went with the machine specific.</description>

            <description><![CDATA[ I had similar problems and changed my setup to use long button tactile switches.  You need to reverse the logic in the firmware.<br />
The tactile worked so good, I now use them for the Z probe too.Very accurate, cheap and small size.]]></description>
