Hoping to get some feedback on this design of a XY Gantry

A Special gantry for openbuilds vslot using Mini V wheels
it also include the ABL (Auto Bed Levelling) Micro switch so when pressure is applied to the nozzle it hinged upward slightly to trigger the microswitch

Smartrap printer have used that design for a while now although a little better constructed than the one on the video.

You will have some inaccuracies due to flex and play from pivot point. If made in aluminum and bearings for pivot shaft it will be a solid performer.
