Do you have a Prusa Mk3 but for some reason want an X axis limit switch?

Or do you have a Prusa Mk2s - Mk2.5s and want to try the Mk3 type X axis belt tension adjuster?

Then try this experimental hacked-together X axis motor mount.

As I have yet to print it let alone try it out as I am in the middle of a large printing project I have no idea if it works. It should work OK. Will print pictures and add results when I get around to making and installing it.

added: It printed out perfectly and works exactly as intended! I paired it with a modified Mk3S X axis Idler holder (using a 5mm I.D. pulley). My Mk2.5S now has a Mk3 X belt adjustment.

note: It is best to use the .3mf file, as the .stl file didn't export well, The .stl is likely to have insufficient depth for the limit switch screw holes.
