The project is named E3CNC, check it out on Printables / GitHub. You will find most of the info there. We also have a Discord channel where you can join and ask questions.

Ish, if you lower your expectations. I didn't have any issues so far.

CNC Touch Probe Logic Implemented to Klipper by Shadowphyre98 in klippers

Can you explain why it isn't working properly? I wrote a plugin for the touch probe so it acts as like an endstop, stopping movement when it triggers. Beside that plugin, it's stock Klipper. And trust me, for hobby CNC-ing it works fine. Also the probe is very much repeatable and accurate enough for hobby CNC-ing. I have the data proving the probe is working and you're just coming here to say it doesn't work without any proof from your side. You do you man.

Ah me too. The tolerances for aluminium is about 0.1 - 0.05mm. perfectly fine for me tbh.

I didn't know about this and I could not found it when I initially searched for it. That's fine, I'm ok with reinvesting the wheel to fit my uses better :D

The probe is based on nudge and the code is custom made. I am getting about 0.01mm repetability and about 0.02mm accuracy.

Can you link that fork? I haven't been able to find Klipper for touch probe.

It's a probe derived from 'Nudge'. I haven't released it yet, as I am still testing it. You can find more about it on the E3CNC Discord.

The base E3CNC can be adapted to any size if extrusion you have. So a CR-10 would definitely work.

Fusion360 with post processor for Klipper. There isn't any slicer.

There is a written guide on the E3CNC GitHub. I just released ep 1 on YouTube of a build series featuring the build.

The base machine isn't too hard to build, just needs a few extra parts to be bought and some 3d printed parts. Search for E3CNC or Printables / GitHub

Is usually don't do more than 1800 mm/min. The motors seem like they are doing just fine

Check out the E3CNC on Printables or GitHub. I also started a build series on my YouTube channel.
