AM8 Z-Stop Actuator

thingiverse

I made a quick edit to print it upright now without supports. If you're interested, I can re-upload the previous one or you can download the .f3d and undo it back to what it was. I really liked [maxwoodpecker]'s z end stop regulator on Thingiverse. Unfortunately for me, I printed it out before realizing it was meant as an addition to blv's blv mgn12 mod, not pheneeny's vanilla AM8. So, I made my own actuator for it. The part that attaches to the motor still needs an 8mm hole drilled in it though. To make the 8mm hole: 1. Attach the regulator to the left Z motor mount with some 3mm bolts. 2. Notch where your 8mm hole is going to go. 3. Remove the regulator. 4. Drill a hole. 5. It probably doesn't hurt to round it out a bit. That's it. I imagine it would probably work for the regular Anet A8 too, but your mileage may vary. Let me know if you do make it work.
