Complete set to replace the carriage, left and right XY mount for use of standard 24mm LM8UU (plain) bearings.It contains also the modified cable chain stepper mount for this cable chain: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:124700 and also a specific screw-less "quick-clip" cooling fan mount matching to the carriage.
The goal of this project is to have a good replacement for use of IGUS plain bearings. The challenge was to create a bearing sleeve without any deforming of the bearings caused by fixing screws. So, the solution is the use of snap rings and additional grub screws. Now it's possible to adjust the right fixity for a good slide without loosing of the bearings if the screw too slack.
