Prusa's rod clamps are satisfactory, but I don't necessarily want to modify the spacing between Z smooth rods and frame. Introducing a one-piece connector with an optional bearing holder, fully parametric including rod spacing. This design matches well with blddk's derivation of my Integrated Z motor mount+frame vertex+rod clamp found at http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:12215. The overall size depends on washer_diameter and spacing distances. horiz_distance is the gap between smooth rod clamp center and threaded rod, placed under the printer's middle. If you omit the bearing mount, this distance can be minimized to smooth_rod_diameter/2+threaded_rod_diameter/2. UPDATED 9 November: new files uploaded with accurate distances, pre-set to standard and featuring M8 holes for easy installation. Just print and insert into your printer for seamless integration!
