These files are suitable for use with a Sintron Prusa i3 to upgrade the Z axis to lead screws in conjunction with Thing: 1140733.
After buying a pair of lead screws and downloading the above Thing files I went to fit them and they were very out for my printers frame. As a result I made a new top and bottom piece to move the smooth rod into the correct position for the X axis ends. The top piece completely replaces the original acrylic part and the bottom piece sits on top of the original acrylic piece.
Longer M3 screws are required for the bottom piece. I've used 4 20mm and 2 25mm screws per side although they would benefit from a few washers on each to effectively reduce the screw length by a fraction.
Note: Due to feedback I have altered the bottom pieces to be more durable but have not printed and tested them out myself. Will update with further feedback.
