Wanhao Duplicator i3 Plus Mk2 X-Axis Belt Tensioner

Couldn't find a tensioner for the Wanhao Duplicator i3 Plus Mk2 (only i3 Plus, which has a different carriage design) so I made one. It has the correct standoff from the carriage for good belt alignment, and is low enough that it doesn't rub against the top belt which was a common fault I found with the other models for the i3 Plus.

Print settings below.

Super simple to install, insert M3 Nyloc and RH end of belt in to the female piece and use the factory M4x20 rounded socket head screws to install on the carriage, then with the LH belt end installed in the male end use a M3x25 or M3x30 socket head cap screw to tighten. Trim or cable tie trailing belt as required.
