SexBolt Z endstop
This an alternative way to do the Z endstop pin in a V2, instead of using a deflanged GT2 20T pulley, it uses 2 5x7x8 sleeve copper bearings/bushing this is pretty simple to assemble. The reason behind this is to help keep the pin from falling out.

Next insert the female side of a 5mmx20mm chicago screw (sex bolt, binding barrel) and screw in the M4x6 or M4x8 SHCS with some loctite to make sure it doenst move over time
Next insert the Z endstop PCB and secure it with 4 m2x10 self tapping screws
Next just secure it to your V2 like you would the stock Z endstop
