SMT Strip Feeder V2

This has been replaced by V3 https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2641147 Parametric SMT Tape Feeders for OpenPnp or other Pick and Place machines can be customized to hold any sized tape, limited only by your print bed size. Before printing a huge array, try a small 20mm 8x1 two tray model to ensure your extruder is properly calibrated. Also make sure your choice of filament has good bed adhesion. This replaces the old version https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2396616 and improves performance significantly. By default, the base cut outs are disabled since they made the tape unstable and components sometimes jumped out. In addition, you can now create a ledge under the holes by specifying the tape thickness (different from height), which gives much better performance on plastic tapes. Finally, the end stop has been removed so that the tape can be extended past the pickup position to allow feed from reels without having to remove the tape to get rid of the used section.
