First off the original thing is awesome great job Pparsniak.

I have just remixed it to suit my own use.
Things I Changed/Added:

Made it so only need the original 3 bearing mounts or the one's made by Pparsniak.


Enclosed the underside completely so no unwanted air blowing over the hot end or print.


Because of the closure of underside it was required to have an out let so that has been added out the back.


I merged the part cooling duct with the popular half circular duct.https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1954001


Added a belt attachment. Rrequired moving the locking screw mount up higher.
Belt holder remixed from https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2016779

Added an adjustable sensor mounting system remixed formhttps://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2283440
I have three versions.
One witch still uses the original sensor mounts.
One that uses the and adjustable sensor mounting system.
And one that doesn't have any sensor mount.
Keep in mind if you use the base plate with the original sensor mount you
need to print the cover with the slot for the sensor mount
.

Added the sensor mounts from original carriage. All credit for them go to Pparsniak.https://www.thingiverse.com/pparsniak/about
