Remix of Anet A8 Jan 2017 model Prusa X carriage remix

cults3d

I'm using the X-idler http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1919544 from Leo_N and want to upgrade the Anet A8 to a E3D bowden setup. I used this X carriage http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2166790 from HipoxiK, but encountered several problems. The changes I've made are clearly visible in the 3rd picture: I added a X Endstop support because it didn't always switch and the x-carriage crashed several times against the X-Idler. Another issue was the belt holder. It couldn't hold the "softer" GT2 belt, nor the original Anet A8 belt. So I reduced the distance to see if the original belt fit into the belt holder. The belt holder wasn't at the correct height for the X-Idler from Leo_N. I increased it by 2mm. This is the belt I'm using with much better results: https://goo.gl/yXBLgi If you want to support me, check out these links if you're interested in buying something.
