Anet AM8 Horizontal Y Belt Conversion

thingiverse

I built the Anet AM8 frame kit and didn't like the vertical mounted Y belt system so I searched Thingiverse for conversion pieces. I found a fantastic mounting bracket set created by Leonet 45. This mounts the stepper on the back rail and gives you a 6 bolt mounting pattern. It also gives you a very sturdy front mount for the adjuster. The only problem was there was NO adjuster bracket for the tensioner. So I searched and found the perfect Y belt tensioner bracket created by Maketo 3d. I put all 3 pieces in one file to make it easier for you. I only had to sand the front mounting bracket where the slider goes. There are two slots for the adjuster to enter. Just sand these slots a little and the fit will be perfect.
