Anet A8 anti Z wobble [simple] by jimmysp

Simple Z smooth rods holder for Anet A8. No bearings required. One piece for the left, one for the right rod.
After I learned how to install the z-couplers on my printer, I printed some "anti wobblers" but found the bearings to be unnecessary and even noisy, they vibrate during printing (some cheap ones). The smooth rods need to be as fixed as possible, which is not the case on the standard Anet A8 frame, it has some large tolerance for the rod holes. So I remixed this thing (removed the bearing holder) and now the rods are tight.
