X-axis mendel style outriggers

With inspiration from modified Makerbots and Mendels at a recent Makerfaire, I designed mendel-style bearing outriggers for my noisy X-axis carriage. This modification offers smooth and quiet operation, enhancing print quality, especially in tall prints. Although mounting holes could be better positioned, the setup works without interference. On 9/29, a minor revision was made to the 180 piece: pockets were added in the reinforcement bump for bolt head accommodation. By request, individual pieces' files were shared on 11/11. Ensure proper centering of parts using existing plastic bushings during drilling and mounting. Before installing rods, remove old bushings. Adjust washers and screw tension to center bearings lightly touching the rods, but not pushing them.
