Human: Remix X-axis from https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2115095 by The_Random_Engineer Filament guide from https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1859405 by STIG_ Filament Sensor https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2443425 by Leo_N I swapped out the original Anet A8 motherboard for a Ramps 1.4, so I'm using the filament runout sensor now, plus I've got an extruder fan that's removable and wanted a chain on my X axis, so I remixed three great works into one with some personal modifications. The leg was too short because I have a glass plate on top of my bed. The mesh is a bit messy, just like the original; I didn't have a way to fix it. The top of my filament sensor case has four neodymium magnets, 3x1.5mm. Be careful with the cable guide - it's a bit thin. Designed using Freecad. <b>UPDATE 3/17/2018:</b> Version 2 is here for end-of-extruder use; I increased the dimensions of the cable guide and reinforced some parts to prevent deformation from temperature changes in enclosures like Ikea Lack. After several long sessions, I printed all pieces in PLA at 20% filling, but they deformed anyway. Version 2 also includes a Z_X_Motor_Chain_Mount notch so the 20-tooth pulley doesn't touch anything. Flanges were added to control cable lowering. The new version was printed in ABS with 100% filling.
