A clever probe mount for the Wanhao i3 and BLTouch v3.1 created by Ben2CE1 and modified to better fit my printer.
Positioning the probe so there's zero Y offset nearly eliminates any issues with X axis twist, and makes bed leveling even more precise. When this is used on my printer the offsets are X = -29 and Y = 0
The mount sits to the left of the extruder fan and heatsink, held in place by replacing the heatsink spacers. Size and position is critical for this design to work, so modify it as needed for your own setup via TinkerCad: https://www.tinkercad.com/things/6CtlDmcvX1g-wanhao-i3-zero-y-bltouch-fan-mount-prmod-v2
The probe just clears the gantry pillar (it's a tight fit!) so there's no need to adjust your X endstop, but even if you have to move your endstop by 3mm it's still worth it. Thanks to Ben2CE1 for going to the original effort to show this was possible! .
