Anet A8 Z motor cover

After testing the heat produced by the Z motor even under long prints, they simply don't get hot. My printer is situated in a small alcove and fits with about 5mm to spare, making it nearly impossible to mount a power switch with easy access near the PSU for power and lights, etc. These pair of left and right handed covers feature enough angle to allow installation of a switch or switches. I've uploaded two blanks (one left and one right) plus a third with a 16mm circle hole, which is where I plan to install my first switch as soon as my 240v power switch arrives. When that happens, I'll print a new version rather than cutting the hole for it. Print these designs flipped 180 degrees, just like in the image included in the zip file, and you can print without any supports needed.
