Customized Z axis upper holder for Geeetech Prusa I3 with ball bearings

I had a couple of 608zz ball bearings in surplus. I've been using the original from @bigsteve for a while now, but the z-axis lead screw kept wobbling at the top, which I wanted to restrict for some tests. So I made this remix where ball bearings could be inserted instead. Together with http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2069451, I got a smoother running printer with no apparent z-wobble left now. I added a couple of extra holes in the right holder, one for the extruder tool that Geeetech supplies with the printer, and one for a zip-tie to hold the USB cable for my webcam mounted on the z-axis carriage. Freecad files are supplied as well.
