Human: *Note: This is only a tiny part of my AM8 upgrades.* You can find the links to the other parts at the bottom of the description.* About ===== This is a housing for 12x15x10mm sinter bearings. Its bore pattern and general size fits the standard SC8UU housings. It can be used as a direct replacement when converting from 8mm rods + LM8UU to 12mm rods and 12x15x10mm sinter bearings. *Note: I revised these blocks because they wore out after about six months.* My sinter bushing had a bit of play inside the old blocks, that's why I made a new version based on zipties. Now, after another six months of usage and abuse they still seem to hold up. I strongly recommend using V2. BOM ==== You will need these parts in addition to the printed housings. Part amounts are listed for one housing: 4x M4x10 ISO 4762 to secure housings on H-plate or Extruder bracket 4x M4 DIN 934 nut 2x M3x5 screws (computer mainboard screws will fit perfectly!) Assembly Instructions ================== 1. Push M4 nuts into the housing. 2. Push the bearing into the housing. 3. Secure the bearings with M3 screws. 4. Mount onto the printer. 5. Have fun!
