X endstop for front facing linear rail setups
🕑 Added 2022-08-16 03:13:54 +0000 UTCAlso added a bunch of additional mounting point for accessories and such because why not! never know when these can come in handy.
Besides the 4 stock motor mounting screw holes, the other mounting holes are as usual meant for heat inserts M3, 4mm long, 4.6mm or 5mm OD.
As for the sensor use M3x6
To play on the safe side would avoid PLA as the long screws might carry the heat of the motor. If you do PLA keep a close eye on it
update: added a simple cover (updated the STEP to include it)

No worries :)

Totally my bad - didn't have my printer in front of me. All good. Thanks for the explanation :)

This only replaces the similar stock piece and allows to reposition of the end stop ( also holds the motor in place and covers the belt pulley ) The motor is sitting behind the metal backplate and the rest is left fully exposed to the air.

Isn't that cover blocking the cooling of the stepper motor? Especially this axis isn't the coolest of all?
