About this 3D model

X-axis carriage with unbreakable LM8UU holders dove-tailed into the carriage - no screws required :) Suits a Mendel Prusa, Mendel Max, Mendel Pro or any printer with 50mm spaced x-axis. Also features fore and aft fan holders for my VGA fan holder http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:29158, wire loom anchor points at the rear and integrated one-sided belt clamp for T5 or XL belts. Check back for the quick fit extruder mounts I am working on next. I have also included the bearing holder clearance file I used to make the carriage if anyone else wants to have a go at this type of assembly, it automatically creates a gap of 0.25mm to allow the two parts to slide together. 30 September - Updated version XC3.6 with added material to prevent warping. Also has additional mounting points for my quick fit extruder hardware. Quick fit latch here: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:31528
