NEMA 17 Mounts for MicroCube-X 3D Printer

thingiverse

I'd designed my version of the MicroCube hybrid to accommodate NEMA 11 motors. These work well but they get hot require extensive cooling. This is a set of modified mounts to allow using NEMA 17 stepper motors for all axes including the extruder. <i>The original design used NEMA 11 steppers on the X,Y and Z axes.</i> The new NEMA 17 parts are shown in green. You'll find them in the STL package. Refer to the original page for the MicroCube to get the other parts you'll need to build it. Note that this design uses a lot of M3 melt-in thread inserts and M3 screws/bolts.
