A8 y axis mount for shitty frames by thijses

Last crawled date: 4 years, 8 months ago

I have a clone A8 (yes, a clone of a clone), with a wooden frame, which is not exactly rigid. When properly tensioned, the Y-axis motor rotates and in my particular case actually broke. This is just a mount for the Yaxis motor that I threw together in windows 3D-builder, because it's goshdarn easy to use and I like it. I included the original 3mf file so you can edit it on your own, mostly because it's possible that your frame is lasercut differently, and such.
includes a 16 OD, 5 ID, 5 Thick ball bearing to help carry the load of the belt.
the next step for me is to find a way to remove the wobbling/ringing on the Y-axis that is allowed by the linear rails. Or maybe i'll give up and make myself a new (3rd) printer, those 'fusebox' designs looked neat...
