Printing Settings
Print without supports. Has nicer curved edged with 0.16 but prints just fine with 0.2.
Parts needed:
1 x M4 bolt (Can be anywhere from 10mm to 16mm long)

Directions:
Remove Housing from Left side of X-Gantry
Position Brace on inside and use a M4 Bolt to connect both pieces in place
Re-attach the Housing (There is a gap so the 2 original screws on left side can still be put through. They are not suppose to affix to part.
(See 3rd picture which shows the two pieces bolted together).
Dont overtighten !
