thingiverse
The original thing:3202 boasts impressive performance; however, it experiences a minor issue with belt friction against the carriage. Consequently, its derivative aims to rectify this problem. You can access the latest openscad files and STLs from the repository at http://gitorious.org/hacks/things/trees/master/makerbot-y-stage. A video demonstrating its functionality can be found on YouTube with the link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IdUrudecH2Y. For updates, check out the 20101004 release that features moved vertical bearings and additional strengthening. For instructions, refer to thing:3202 temporarily. If you own a heated platform, print it upside-down for a smooth and level surface. To download the files, execute the following commands: git clone git://gitorious.org/hacks/things.git, cd things, git submodule init, git submodule update. This will fetch the repository files and the MCAD library used to draw the bearings. Note that the openscad file requires OpenSCAD 2010.05 or a newer version due to its utilization of recent features.
