Anycubic Chiron Back Z Brace

thingiverse

First of all, you'll lose 40mm in printing height. This said, I designed Z Braces because I was constantly plagued by bad horizontal lines on all my prints, always at a specific height. You can see what I mean by looking at the picture - the supports were printed before mounting the system. I've done the flow calibration again and it got better, but not enough; I was always getting those lines at the same specific height. The conclusion was that my Z threaded rods are bent in more than one point. I looked around for braces but couldn't find what I wanted because I didn't want to dismount anything and didn't want to print something ugly. Then I decided to design my own braces, never having printed over 400mm before, so I thought to design something to print and mount without taking the printer apart, and it had to be good-looking too. As you can see in the Cube test print, it works fine. You'll need: - 2 x M12 threaded rods 630mm - 8 x M12 nuts - 8 x M12 washers - 16 x M5 Tnuts - 16 x M5x12 bolts
