Cherry pi III Mini V Wheel Carriage for OpenBuild with Cable tightener by mikes3ds

Last crawled date: 2 years, 12 months ago

This is a design is from "Pointy" (see link bellow) but edit to work on Open Builds V slot extrusions and to work with a 10mm ball socket.
The design has a easy way of tightening the cable.
M3 x25mm Socket Head Cap Screw & M3 Nut (Wheel tension adjustment)
M3 x 20mm Hex Head Screw & M3 Nut (Belt adjustment, If you don't have a M3 hex bolt, a normal SHCS will probably work if you glue it in place.)
4 x No 4 x 1/2" Pozi Flanged Self Tappering Screws (Fixings for rod carrier/carriage)
3 x M5 30mm Socket Head Cap Screw (to replace the M5 screws supplied with the mini v wheel kit)
2 x M2 x 6mm Socket Head Cap Screw (to hold the belt loops in place)
For Pointys Design 8mm balls, and for the Rexroth/Motedis see this link.http://forums.reprap.org/read.php?178,361141,470341#msg-470341
