3Dtje Modular X-Carriage

thingiverse

This is a modular X-Carriage for the "mini 3D printer" from 3Dtje. (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1023641). In my case, the X-Carriage had noticeable play due to inaccuracy and because I really enjoy modular x-carriages, I decided to design a new one. With this, you can mount any tool you desire, and change it with minimal effort. I also designed an E3D mount for this carriage. (Link will follow in some hours) Parts needed: (With Aliexpress links) 6x M3 Brass insert nuts (http://bit.ly/2PT5XOU) 2x M2 20mm screws (http://bit.ly/2VMGNa9) 2x M2 nuts (http://bit.ly/2YgfvGu) 3x Bushing (From your old carriage) 2x Ziptie Assembly: Insert the 6 M3 brass inserts in the 4.5mm holes. I prefer melting them in with a soldering iron. Insert the 2 M2 screws in the holes on the back. Make a loop with the GT2 Belts and zip tie it. After that, insert this loop in the hole on the side, and lock it in place with the M2 Bolt. Insert the bushings and install the carriage on your mini 3D printer.
