HICTOP Prusa i3 Bed leveling nuts holder and spring tensioner

thingiverse

These are intended to be used on the HICTOP Prusa i3 sheet-metal beds. Makes leveling the bed much easier using a Philips screw driver Holds the nuts in place and prevent them from coming undone and falling off (no more annoying rabbit ear or the thumb screw coming lose and falling off in the middle of the print rabbit-ears) adds tension to the springs and also hugs the bottom half of the spring to reduce bed vibration. The spring can compress and decompress and is more restricted to move in any other direction. It should theoretically reduce the y-axis wobble, but I am still unsure by how much. Note: I have tested printing this in both ABS and PLA, however I get much better results when printed in ABS. it seems to hold on to the nut better and is also an all around better fit. You also want your spring to fit in there quite tightly, yet it should be able to compress and decompress relatively freely in order to hold up the bed. if it is too tight to fit on the edge of the bed (interestingly some the regular one will fit some corners, but may not fit other corners because the sheet metal is not exactly accurately shaped or it bends under normal use) use the "Wide" one.
