Description

This is version 2 of the Z-Axis Brace used to stablize the Z-wobble apparent in many printers. This one was designed for the Hictop Prusa i3 but should work on all or most i3 style printers with a 8mm thread and rod.

The original design intended to have M8 nuts above and below the bearing, but this seemed unnecessary and took up too much space. It is better to have the bearing closer to the coupler, so the overall height has been lowered.

This is the precise adjustment version so you can compensate for motor mounts that are not perfectly perpendicular to the build plate.

Note
Funnily enough, I designed this part for M2 Nuts and Bolts but then realized I only had 2 of them on stock which is why there are only two in the picture :P
