I think SainSmart CNC Touch Plate, Huanyu Plate will be good. My budget is low so looking for an affordable option that's struggling a bit in finding good one.
So need your reviews and suggestion on good CNC Touch Plates at cheaper pricing
Thanks in advance -
I have the cheapest I could get on Amazon.
Works well -
Thanks for suggestion

Unless you just like the ease of use, or convenience of buying one online, there's really no need. I use a small copper clad proto board that I never etched. I cut it to a handy shape and soldered a wire to it. I have a banana plug that I use to plug it in to a panel mounted jack, instead of the alligator clip.
Basically, you can use anything that's conductive and that has an easily measurable Z height. Heck, I've used tin foil wrapped around the part when I wanted to find exact Z of a previously failed part in order to continue where I left off, lol.

If you want to go super meta you could do what this guy did. 3d printed a plate and covered it in aluminum tape.
