Ord Bot X-Axis Leadscrew Upgrade by evil2002usna

Last crawled date: 3 years ago

I hated my X-Axis Belts so I replaced them with a leadscrew from Trinity Labs. I had to completely re-design the x-axis and extruder carriage. I also had to purchase a new piece of makerslide to extend the axis out farther to the right to fit my extruder and the leadscrew. This is still a work in progress. The extruder mount is designed for my extruder and hot end, but a new mount can easily be designed. Additionally, I didnt size the mounting holes for the leadscrew nut properly on the extruder carriage. I used M4 instead of M5. It works fine, but I eventually want to get it perfect. I tried to make a pocket big enough to adjust the eccentric spacers in the back, but my wrench still will not fit. I had to do it through trial and error a couple of times without the v-wheels on. I want to make modifications to just about every part, but for a first go, I feel pretty good. Let me know what you think.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lKGtLkZD9JM
