Anet A8 Plus - Bear X & Y - Frame Brace

prusaprinters

This is a remix of my X brace found here: <a href="https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4133747">https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4133747</a> This X and Y brace is ment to extend your Anet A8 Plus in the X and Y directions by 40mm. The brace will help stabilize the frame and the added room gives you enough space to easily run a 330x330mm hot bed surface. For this mod, you will need to purchase: • 2 - 7/16-14" x 36" Steel Threaded Rods - https://www.amazon.com/National-Hardware-N179-523-4000BC-Threaded/dp/B001OKNXB8/ref=as\_li\_ss\_tl?keywords=7/16-14+threaded+rod&qid=1580923715&s=industrial&sr=1-3&linkCode=sl1&tag=fedorsosnin-20&linkId=9bb29735cc193d730ece49ef366dc546&language=en\_US • 8 - 7/16-14" Nuts - https://www.amazon.com/National-Hardware-N179-523-4000BC-Threaded/dp/B001OKNXB8/ref=as\_li\_ss\_tl?keywords=7/16-14+threaded+rod&qid=1580923715&s=industrial&sr=1-3&linkCode=sl1&tag=fedorsosnin-20&linkId=9bb29735cc193d730ece49ef366dc546&language=en\_US • 6 - M4x15mm Bolts - https://www.amazon.com/National-Hardware-N179-523-4000BC-Threaded/dp/B001OKNXB8/ref=as\_li\_ss\_tl?keywords=7/16-14+threaded+rod&qid=1580923715&s=industrial&sr=1-3&linkCode=sl1&tag=fedorsosnin-20&linkId=9bb29735cc193d730ece49ef366dc546&language=en\_US • 6 - M4 T-Slot Nuts - https://www.amazon.com/National-Hardware-N179-523-4000BC-Threaded/dp/B001OKNXB8/ref=as\_li\_ss\_tl?keywords=7/16-14+threaded+rod&qid=1580923715&s=industrial&sr=1-3&linkCode=sl1&tag=fedorsosnin-20&linkId=9bb29735cc193d730ece49ef366dc546&language=en\_US You will need to print: • 1 - Upper_Left_Mount.stl • 1 - Upper_Right_Mount.stl • 1 - Lower_Left_Mount.stl • 1 - Lower_Right_Mount.stl • 8 - Spherical_Washers.stl (8 concave and 8 convex washers) Installation Procedure: <ol> <li>Install the lower mounts to the chassis using the OEM M5 screw and a M4x15 Bolt and M4 T-Slot Nut. </li> <li>Thead in the rod into the hole of the Lower Left Mount.</li> <li>Slide on the Spherical Washers above and below the mount.</li> <li>Loosely secure with 7/16-14" Nuts above and below the mount.</li> <li>Thread on a 7/16-14" Nut onto the rod from the top.</li> <li>Followed by a set of Spherical Washers.</li> <li>Thread on the Upper Left Mount</li> <li>Mount the Upper Left Mount with 2 - M4x15 Bolts and T-Slot Nuts.</li> <li>Thread on a set of Spherical Washers from the top.</li> <li>Thread on a 7/16-14" Nut onto the rod from the top.</li> <li>Lightly tighten the lowest Nut and the upper most Nut. </li> <li>Lightly tighten the middle Nuts.
