Z extension of Z brace

Wanted to do the SWD2 Z back brace mod but also wanted to do a Z extension mod. So after a few days I made one in Tinkercad. Yesterday come to find out [kehlebract](https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2588219) already made the same thing (didn't think to look under remixes). Anyway, here's my version of the merge of [ShadowWeaver2067's Z-axis rear mount](https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2391089) and [Azza's Z-extensions](https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1444979). My first thing on thingiverse! **TIPS** - I printed these with large flat side on the bed (the side with the hex nut holes). It puts a lot of supports in the 2mm gap -- you can remove these with thin needlenose pliers, but biggest help was to use the scraper that came with the printer to clear the supports from the gap. - **WARNING!** There is very little clearance between the inside edge of these and the Z frame holder! So when hitting those high Z heights (> 160mm) be sure that the lower screws on these parts do not stick out. Recommend M3 x 10mm screws. I only had M3 x 12mm so I added another nut on the 'head' side of the screws to keep it from sticking out the other side. - The X axis brace is still mounted on the front using the top holes. I think it's best to ensure that the Z axes are the same distance throughout a print. I put it at the top of those holes (see picture).
