Anet A8 leveling thumb wheels

Update 6/6/2017 - Removed Anet Springs and Installed Dual Thumbwheels, To accomplish this update, you need to have four M3 nuts to attach flat head screws to the top plate, then drill out the threads on the y-axis carriage. I combined it with my bed extender clips (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2358703) and setting the four corners is now a snap. More inspired by than a remix of these thumb wheels. I like the idea of using thumb wheels to eliminate springs in the corners. Put together two sizes (.75" and .5") of thumb screws that use M3 heat-set threaded inserts (0.13 USD each) https://www.mcmaster.com/#94180a331/=17vmj81 So far, I've only used it in place of the wing nut. To eliminate springs, I will have to drill out the threads from the Y carriage.
