Bushing Holder

thingiverse

This SCAD file allows customization to create holders for SDP-SI's self-aligning press fit bushings and delrin dowels, which form 180-degree bearings. In my Y-axis setup, I use two of each type per shaft. Delrin dowel pins can be sourced from McMaster-Carr or cut from rod. They outwear PLA/ABS. For the 180-degree bearings, you may need to print multiple times, adjusting for your printer's accuracy to match the bearings to the shaft diameter. The provided STL files are for 16mm self-aligning bushings and 1/2" long 1/8" dowel pins, suitable for 8mm rods. All dimensions can be altered within the OpenSCAD file.
