This thing is a completely new model based on the version by rustytj (most dimensions and basic shape), but after printing his, I found a couple of minor flaws.
1. the clip did not wrap far enough around the smooth rod so it would pop off easily
2. the recess for the solder joints on the back of the endstop was not long enough - only 2 of the solder joints fit in the recess, not all 3.
This version fixes both of those issues as well as being a little thicker for greater strength.
Orientation on opening the file has also been addressed.

One other thing I would like to comment on was that the original version was saved as an ASCII type stl making the file much larger than it needs to be (crazy number of vertices) and was quite jagged looking when I loaded it into RH for slicing.
ASCII is completely unnecessary for this type of model (and most other models, as well). Binary is generally fine for the greater majority of 3d models for printing.

Version 2 is shorter - I found I
