3Drag: improved y-axis linear bearing holder

thingiverse

I've experienced some issues with ripples in my prints and missed steps after conducting an investigation and experimenting with different solutions. It appears that the sturdiness of the y-axis linear bearing holders is to blame - or rather, their lack thereof. Since the holders are held in place by only one screw each, they can be slightly tilted, causing the bearings to move out of line. This results in a jerky motion instead of smooth movement, accompanied by an annoying rattling sound. To resolve this issue quickly and inexpensively, I designed and printed new linear bearing holders for the y-axis. The updated model is available for download here; hopefully, it will prove helpful. Update (15.03.17): A problem arose with the size of the model in the .stl file. A corrected version has been reuploaded.
