Tevo Tarantula Y Carriage

thingiverse

I spent a considerable amount of time printing this, and it consumed a substantial amount of material, but in my opinion, it was well worth the effort. I dedicated a lot of time to addressing the annoying wobbling issue using the standard carriage before finally getting it right. Now, my carriage is solid as I always envisioned it. This is a remix, so I made some changes: * The legs are now more square and solid for added sturdiness. * There is more room on the legs to accommodate large knobs like these: - https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2825145 - https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2609846 I eliminated the need for belt brackets by embedding a loop directly onto the main body of the carriage where the belt can be attached. This allows the end stop to hit the main body as it does on the standard carriage. To assemble this upgrade, in addition to the hardware already on the standard carriage, you will only require: * 4x M3 washers * 4x M3 x 14mm bolts (or slightly shorter). Bolts longer than 14mm will not fit. These washers and bolts are merely a precautionary measure to ensure that the legs remain firmly in place. I'm not entirely sure if they're even necessary because everything is very tight, but I recommend using them just in case. **Please view two tests I conducted after this upgrade and form your own opinion!** * **20x20x60 Test Tower:** This showcases the result (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2790496) * **Also take a look at some mods I made on my printer to achieve this outcome:** * No Sanding Oldham: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2581521/files * X Carriage: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3999541
