RepRap Prusa Mendel custom Y motor mount

Custom Y motor mount for my RepRap Prusa Mendel. I've built a custom printer frame which allows for mounting of the Y motor (nema 17) inside the frame. Reversing the standard bracket caused the gear to skip steps on the belt. The new bracket is to fix this by guiding a larger span of the belt around the gear using a bearing. Installed and tested on my printer and it works great! (see pics). The enigine is no longer mounted outside the frame. The bearing is mounted using a M8x30 bolt. Large diameter M8 washers are used to guide the belt, just as it is done on the prusa's other belt guides.
