TL SMOOTHER HOLDER 2020 EXTRUSION AND ANYCUBIC PREDATOR

thingiverse

This is a remix from SolidRye. I've added images of the TL smoothers I've got, which didn't fit in SolidRye's holder due to protruding pins on the bottom side of the circuit board. I modified the holder to have openings so they'd sit flat. Quality control on the circuit boards was a bit off too, and I had to make holes about 1mm smaller. Printing SolidRyes part wasn't easy, it would've needed supports. So I changed the design to mount on the extrusion with 2 bolts and 2 extrusion nuts instead. Now it sits flat on the bed without needing any supports. I applied 2 dabs of hot melt glue in opposite corners to keep each board in place. Pictures show everything. Note to myself and others: in the future, I'd buy TL smoothers with heatsinks. The diodes get really warm and need those heatsinks badly. I got a deal on mine for $5 for 3, but next time I'll spend more and get ones with heatsinks. The diodes are too small and close together to use stepper motor heatsinks. Now I've gotta look for different size heatsinks that fit. The source file in Sketchup is included if you want to modify it.
