X carriage PM single piece

thingiverse

I'm deeply inspired by http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:164367 and constantly striving to enhance my machine, so I'm experimenting with some innovations to Wildseyed's original design. The main objective is to create a universal "slot" below the carriage surface into which accessories can be seamlessly fitted - fan holders, cooling ducts, nut traps, and more. This project is far from completion but is definitely a work in progress. Unfortunately, I'm currently working away from my printer so I won't be able to test things out until later this month. My initial tests will focus on determining the optimal perimeter/wall thickness print fill percentage. In the coming weeks, I'll be constantly messing around with and adding new features to this design, so feel free to check back if you're interested in keeping up with developments. Update 1: A 40mm fan duct for E3D V6 has been successfully added. Update 2: T2 and plain belt clamps have been incorporated into the design. I'm more than happy to receive comments and ideas from others who share my passion for innovation.
