I snapped a probe of a bltouch from a forgotten print on the bed :( after that day I added a webcam into my octoprint setup!

On the upside, went crtouch the second time around because if had a shorter metal probe.

I had the same happen to me! My knockoff bltouch got it's probe snapped off in an unfortunate speghetti incident. I took it apart and replaced the plastic probe with a bamboo skewer that I cut and shaped to the dimensions of the probe. It's been working flawlessly for 3 months now.
