UPDATE 11/18/2018:
Connector pieces were corrected and replaced. Thank you to those that pointed it out.
UPDATE 8/26/2018:
Designed pieces that connect the back of the Y axis rods to the acrylic frame. The connectors help with alignment during installation, and are another contact point with the frame.
UPDATE 8/21/2018:
Redesigned the belt tensioner. Nut captivity added for idler bearing screw AND added spacers for the idler bearing. Part was also strengthened. Still uses M3 x 16mm screw.
This is a remix of Logan Royer's design for the Anet A8 (A6 won't work). Logan's original design:
