HICTOP Prusa I3 Y-Axis Rod Support
prusaprinters
<p>On the HICTOP Prusa I3 printer, the Y-Axis rods are supported by a couple of acrylic blocks. The tolerances on the blocks are very poor, causing then to stress the rod (and the bearings) or to shatter (as mine did).</p> <p>You can easily replace these blocks with ones that you print yourself (on your friend's printer, I guess). I found that the PLA blocks are a little bit more flexible, allowing them to hold the rod firmly in place without stressing anything.</p> <p>I printed mine in PLA with 50% infill and they work just fine.</p> <h3>Print instructions</h3><p>I designed this part in SketchUp</p>
