Description

This was inspired by ItsJustMidnight's XP replacement part. In this case, I designed a bracket that would mount to the free "spool" holder/handle extension that was part of the Christmas promotion. I purchased 8mm rods and a 12" ACME threaded rod from McMaster Carr, and together with this, I am at least functionally up to 175mm on my z axis. The hole for the threaded rod is meant to be loose, so don't expect a tight fit there, as I have heard quite a few folks say contraining the z screw end will add torque to the z axis adjustment that will cause random errors.
