A Remix of the Original AM8 Reinforced! I've taken the original [AM8 Reinforced!](https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2657605) and given it a fresh spin, focusing specifically on the Y belt tensioner. **The Changes I Made** I slimmed down the idler arms to make them easier to insert, and added a slot for an M3 nut and a countersunk M3 screw head. This allows for tighter tensioning of the idler while keeping it looking great. **What You'll Need** * 1x **Original Anet A8 idler**: No surprise here! * 1x **M3x10 screw**: Used for tensioning, with a minimum length of 10mm - any head shape will do. * 1x **M3x24 screw, countersunk**: This one serves as the axle for the idler. * 2x **M3 nuts, hex shaped**: These are used for tensioning and holding the idler in place. * 2x **M5 Aluminium Profile Mounting**: You'll need these to secure it to your alu profile. **Printing Instructions** Print with 100% infill and follow the original orientation. Supports aren't needed - just let it print! If you have any questions or spot any issues, feel free to comment! I'll do my best to help out. And as always, I've included the Blender file for further editing if you'd like to give it a try.
