Z Axis Motor Mount for Voxelab Aquila

thingiverse

This mount is visually inspired by the Z axis motor mount made by mknet, so I want to give them credit for that, but I fully modeled this myself in Fusion360 using the stock Aquila mount for reference measurements. Two of the stock parts on the Aquila are absolute garbage; the extruder and the z axis mount. There are plenty of extruders out there but I have made a z axis mount that uses the stock screws (plus two M3x6). The holes are tapered to fit the stock screw heads. You can run it without the extra screws if you need time to order them (for example, my stock mount was cracking so I HAD to print one before it fully broke). This part requires no drilling. The big screws that screw into the aluminum extrusion are hard to get in the holes if you've already mounted the motor. I may fix this in an upcoming version but they will fit with some persuasion. It looks melted to fix clearance issues. Plus I think it looks kinda cool.
