Description
My motor side has always been wonky as someone printed the parts for me but it didn't have enough infill, was in ABS, and the 8mm holes were just too large so I created this to go along with my Prusa I3 Rework X-Idler Drop In Replacement ( http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:699285 ) and man has it made a difference. No more wobbly now all I have is the 8mm smooth rod flex which all 8mm smooth rods will flex (I wish I had known this a little over a year ago).
I built this to be more solid and to place the Z axis m5 nut in a more appropriate place (lower down towards the middle instead of the top like the original) with a deeper well so the m5 has less chance of popping out.
