Y axis H frame reinforcement

thingiverse

I had got a Alunar M505, which is a Anet A8 clone, the H Frame was bent along one side of the guide rail, and would bind up the bearings, I called for a replacement but I didn't want to wait for a month as it was the only thing I needed to complete it, so I had an 1 1/2"Aluminum Angle 1/8" thick from other projects sitting around and after measuring it up with the current H plate marked the holes onto it drilled and cut side and notches on the ends for the butterfly nuts, and after I assembled it, it worked out great! very stable, would work for the plastic sheet plate on other models also. I have the main file in case your measurements are different then what I was getting off my plate, the thing needs to be straight or you will get a lot of noise from your bearings. so use this as a guide when making yours or use something stronger then PLA, for I am still upgrading mine so I can work with nylon and ABS. I hope this helps or gives you an idea or 2.
