Adjustable X-Stop for Anet A8

thingiverse

FIRST: If your printer is set as a 'Prusa i3' and you're having trouble centering prints with Cura, ensure you go to Settings > Printers > Manage Printers > Machine Settings and change your dimensions to 220 x 220 x 240. This simple adjustment might resolve any issues you're experiencing, so feel free to like this post without hesitation. My Anet A8 x-stop switch wasn't cooperating due to the screws provided; I decided to drill new holes but didn't like the resulting offset. To tackle both problems, I designed a quick print solution that offers a practical fix. Simply attach it to the top X rail and slide it over the original plastic frame. Using an M3*12 bolt and an M3 nut, you can now easily relocate the x-stop switch and secure it wherever you prefer – even if that's its original position. Additionally, instead of relying on the top clip, consider using a small amount of glue or adhesive putty to keep the switch in place.
