Y-Axis Idler Support Bracket for Thing-O-Matic

thingiverse

I was pleased with tomlombardi's Y-Axis support bracket, as it functioned as described. However, I encountered an unrelated issue where the wires from my ABP would rub against the same bolts used for attachment, potentially causing future problems. To solve this, I modified the part by increasing its thickness to fully recess the nuts and making the holes large enough not to require drilling. The original bolts can still be used without needing longer ones. Additionally, a large radius was added on the right side to prevent the wires from catching. To install, print the part and unscrew the top two bolts from the front right rod cover. Place the bracket over the Y-Axis idler bolt head and align it with the rod cover bolt holes. Securely fasten the nuts in the recessed areas using the screws.
