I decided to build a FrankenPrusa, clone Mk2S, with parts left over from my Mk2.5 Full Bear upgrade. I chose to use the printed y-axis by pcky, https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2836470 I had tried out several iterations of "squash ball feet" for sound isolation of my Mk2.5 Full Bear. I finally settled on these, https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3385254 , by dermatin. The low profile makes things a bit more stable, and they look great too. I had some feet mounted on the FrankenPrusa, similar to these, https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3323073 , that I had attached by drilling and tapping holes in the FrankenPrusa. They worked but raised the FrankenPrusa too high, and because of the narrow base, did not improve stability. I was so impressed with dermatin's low-profile design, that I knew I had to have them on the FrankenPrusa. My low profile feet are a remix of the two things - https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3385254 & https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2836470 .The foot, which is rotated 90 degrees, is to accommodate the PSU holder at the rear right. Print x2 Right Feet (one for front right and one for rear left). To mount the feet, you can use epoxy or scale them so that they are a tight push fit - my trial pieces stayed on without any glue. As I had already drilled and tapped the y-axis pieces, I drilled a clearance hole and mounted my final set with screws. Update: 10-02-2019 The longer foot, for the right-rear foot, by the PSU, wasn't fitting well. I have replaced it with a foot rotated by 90 degrees. I will upload a better fitting, longer foot, sometime in the week. Update: 11-02-2019 I had to give some more clearance on the right, rear foot before it would fit. Replaced previous version.
