Tevo Tarantula Y axis motor rigidity spacers (3mm)

thingiverse

Excellent stability, the lightweight design. **A straightforward solution to ghosting artifacts.** To be used with this kit on the X axis: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2847740 The Tevo Tarantula comes with two Y axis motor brackets, but only one is actually being utilized. With four sets of those spacers and four M3x35mm allen screws, the decorative bracket finally gets to serve its intended purpose. I found the screws on eBay, "M3*35mm A2 304 STAINLESS STEEL ALLEN BOLT". Print three times the STL containing a pair of "pulley" spacers, a 9mm long middle strut, and a 2.5mm thick washer. Print one single time the STL containing the thin-nosed pulley spacers and the plastic washer. All four are to be used with M3x35mm screws. Print with 100% infill, with no brim or supports. Not too hot or you'll have to drill the 3mm holes after print. Should the pulley be toast (stuck bearings), you can either sand off about 1mm from the dedicated spacers. Or print the additional STL containing a shorter spacer. The small play will prevent it from being locked.
