MakerSlide/(T-slot 20mm) Pulley Bracket

Originally, my printer comprised of components from an '80s x-ray copier, which was too bulky for swift printing. To resolve this issue, I'm building a H-bot with MakerSlide that has less moving mass. The H-bot requires six pulleys to guide the belt around its figure; I designed a simple bracket fitting in 20mm t slots and incorporating a nut holder. However, I positioned it incorrectly, so it didn't fit. Instead of reprinting, I inserted a 6-32 screw and nut within the track to secure the bracket. Belt tension ensures stability. I used 10-24 machine screws with washers to mount the pulley. The Inventables pulley had an interior ridge that hindered bearing centering, so I filed it off. After testing a single bracket, print the rest. An update suggests making the embedded nut deeper for slot fitting, countersinking the hole, adding a circular bump inside, and thicker sides to include an embedded nut for the bolt passing through the pulley.
