Printerbot Simple (2013) X-axis extension

thingiverse

This upgrade extends your Printrbot Simple's print bed by 50mm for the X-axis, increasing its range from approximately 100mm to 150mm. To implement this modification, you'll need two 300mm 8mm steel rods and follow these steps: 1. Remove the print bed from its original rods by cutting cable ties. 2. Replace the existing X-axis rods with new 300mm rods. 3. Attach the existing print bed to the included parts using the original screws, nuts, and springs. 4. Replace the X-axis line with a new length, attaching it to the original tensioner on the left side and the relocated line attachment screw on the new parts. The required parts are: 1x x-right, 1x x-left, 2x lh-arm, 2x rh-arm, 1x tensioner (optional), and 1x tensioner clip (due to a shifted attachment point). When gluing the arms to the bars, ensure the nut holes are at the bottom and use strong adhesive.
