Folgertech 2020 5mm Threaded Rod stablizer

thingiverse

I was experiencing what's known as "z-wobble" in a majority of my prints. I searched Thingiverse for a solution but none were applicable for my model (Folgertech 2020 i3 Prusa), so I learned the basics of OnShape and created my first 3D model. You will need two 623ZZ bearings for this. It comes with two pieces, and you should print one set for each side. The first piece is a small cylinder that fits around the end of the threaded rod and inside of your 623ZZ bearing. Then the bearing snaps into the stabilizer piece with the open "C" part fitting around the 8mm smooth rod. I made two short video clips showing before and after but I don't know how to share them here, so I will link to my Instagram if that's okay: https://www.instagram.com/p/BaPnTkuHYjS/ Here is the model link on OnShape: https://cad.onshape.com/documents/4d67b9093548d2d6e43c60bb/w/e5f0c0b11aaad362d026fdee/e/3a26c687c7f5556cff9c5ebc Since this is my first Thing shared, I hope I did it right. If things are incorrect or need further explanation, please let me know. I'll continue to modify and customize my Folgertech 2020 3D print and share all my work here and on my Instagram account.
