Prusa i3 X Axis for Brass Leadscrew Nut

thingiverse

I took Jonathan Kayne's Prusa X axis R2 STEP files from GrabCAD and modified them to accommodate a brass leadscrew nut instead of the larger plastic nuts provided with the Prusa kit. I also modified the idler side to allow the X axis rods to slide all the way through, as my smooth rods are a few inches too long. I made these changes for my personal homebrew Prusa i3 machine because it was necessary, but I don't see any other designs that accept a brass leadscrew nut, so this modification might be helpful to someone else.
