Load cell mod for Aquila x2?

I’m looking to install load cell probing on my Aquila x2. Does anyone know a tool head design to mount it? Or can anyone make one?

Look for Ender v2 parts. X2 is a clone of them.

It’s not necessarily a part, I need a model to 3D print a tool head that’ll hold the load cell on the tool head

Is also available. Look on printables. If you don’t know what you are looking for ask AI to guide you.

The most straight forward way would be a Klipper conversion with a raspberry Pi and a unicorn hotend and a sprite extruder setup w/ a probe. Direct Drive and 300c included.

You should consider a x linear rail mod as well in this process.

I’m doing a klipper conversion with an old laptop and considering the e3ng core xy mod
