Prusa Bar Clamp--No Disassembly Required
thingiverse
This alternative replaces the breakable bar clamps in Prusa i2 designs inspired by http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:33772. It requires minimal disassembly with just two M3x40 bolts and nuts. Barclamp_plated.stl contains all parts for a single vertex. For separate printing, print barclamp_center and TWO barclamp_cap. Assemble by squeezing the center piece between bars, align caps over and under bars, then tighten screws to clamp. Stls are designed for 8mm rods with 9.5mm center-to-center separation and two M3 bolts. An openSCAD file is also included, as it's a first parametric design attempt; feedback is appreciated. Updates on longevity and nut traps will be added soon.
