Aluminum Stepper Mounting Block

thingiverse

I wanted to use the aluminum stepper motor mount rather than the printed one supplied in the printer files. [Here is the mount I used](https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B018QPUROO) and this is a mounting block for this extruder motor mount, which offers a very stable arm to make it easier to change filament, along with a better grip on the filament since it does not use a flat bearing. You will need 4 of the 10mm M5 screws washers and square nuts to secure the mount to the frame. The screw holes to mount the bracket are for M4 screws. I do not know the exact size I used but it is designed to fit up to 25mm long screws. ***NOTE:*** This should be printed in the orientation pictured. The screw holes to secure it to the frame are supposed to be covered, this way (just like the D-Bot parts) you do not need to print this with supports. ***EDIT:*** Thingiverse seems to be redirecting the link above to a default amazon landing page.
