AM8 Y Rod Holder w/ Endstop. Compatible with Reprap Champions Anet A8 Carriage

thingiverse

This is a Y-Rod holder with endstop for the AM8 upgrade that is compatible with the reprap champion carriage for the Anet A8 It brings the endstop forward 10mm and leaves a 2mm safety distance from the y motor mount. This is the same safety distance as the original carriage. I would recommend only setting your printer's y build volume to 210mm. This leaves a 2mm safety gap from the original A8's slide bushings from hitting the front extrusion. With the default 220mm bed at a 210 mm build volume, I recommend setting your (0,0) point 5mm from the front of the bed by sliding the side extrusions into a position that allows it and then setting it in your firmware. This will setup correctly centered prints.
