Ender 40MM Extruded Aluminum Trays

thingiverse

I needed to keep debris out of the extruded aluminum framing, so I designed and built these trays. The 40 x 135 trays have a small lip, and they're meant for the front of my Ender 3 printer. The 40 x 90 tray is perfect for fitting next to the Z axis stepper motor, while the 40 x 135 flat tray goes under the TPU. These one-holed flat trays slot into the extruded aluminum and rotate in place. Be sure to check which way they're supposed to pivot carefully. I used standard 3 x 8mm bolts with T-nuts for assembly. Some parts were made a bit thicker than needed to accommodate these common bolts.
