Eustathios Belt Tensioner

myminifactory

Remix of Eric Lien's Eustathios v2 Spyder belt tensioner. This version is designed to work with 10mm cross bars, 30mm graphite bushings (still uses a 15.9mm diameter opening), and allows the cross rods to be removed without a full disassembly of the x-y gantry. (update: it turns out that the cross bars can be removed from the original belt tensioners by sliding the bar to one side and lifting it out) A version for 8mm cross bars is included, but it has not been printed or tested. This version needs support material to print (the original does not). I would recommend using the original parts; they've been thoroughly tested on many machines. Once you have a working machine, it's easier to customize and fine-tune it further. Filaments: Hatchbox Transparent Black ABS - Recommended for its excellent strength and durability. Hatchbox Transparent Red ABS - Ideal for creating vibrant and eye-catching prints. 3D Solutech See Through Orange ABS - A versatile filament suitable for a wide range of applications.
