HICTop 3dp-11 X Axis Belt Holder - Reinforced

thingiverse

X-Axis belt holder to replace the original which warped under tension. This one in reinforced to prevent warping in the front to back direction. It may also prevent warping in the up and down direction, time will tell. 9/26/18 The first one lasted 2 years and 5 months. I had to print another one and decided to improve on it. I made the belt slot to slightly over exact belt shape and dimensions. My first test worked perfect, then I printed a final one to use and I had to do a good bit of cleanup to get the belt to fit. I do think that the effort to put the belt in is worth it as I doubt this one will fail as the old one did. The belt end on my first one started slipping out. Post-Printing Had to ream the bolts holes to fit the screws. Otherwise it worked well. This is a great companion to the X Right End that I designed a few weeks ago. The one with the printed Z screw nut.
