LulzBot TAZ 6 Remix Custom

thingiverse

This has been completely revised into a new version of the Yaxis and other enhancements https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3819363 If you prefer this Yaxis with supported rails, just download the updated parts from the new version. This is my version of the LuzBot TAZ 6, based on and partly redrawn from the LulzBot OpenSource files but reconfigured to avoid some unusual ideas like inadequate belt tensioning and poorly drawn components that left me perplexed. 2018 July: Added 10mm Bearing holders for the X axis carriage. 2018 MAJOR UPDATE: I have completely redesigned the lower Z axis motor mounts (version 3). This is a more printer-friendly design and provides a bit more Z axis height for certain applications.

Update: in the downloads there is a ZIP file 1st_concept_z_carriage_no_insert.zip which contains the STL's for doing the X Smooth Rods without using the Melt in inserts. These are not tested to date but should work without a problem. It uses M3 Square nuts... square because at 3mm a hexagon is almost round and it might just spin. So do a search on eBay and get some square nuts; they're cheap. Note: the left hand one has a shouldered hole so you only need nuts at one end... this could also be used for the Heat Insert instead of the z_carriage_motor_ak.stl and save 2 inserts for a rainy day. Added: Y_axis_linear_rail_clamp_less_2mm.stl with 2mm more clearance for the Y axis bearing block. Added: Y_axis_endplate_Test.stl this is to make sure the endplates fit the Linear Rails With this cutting list, the Max Travel of Z is 250mm. You can achieve 260mm but homing with the raise before descending will catch the fame corner on the X motor.
