V2 Updated Now…!!!
Inital version had a maximum Y travel distance of 225mm with default Y axis limit switch position (Original mount of Ender 3)
V2 has a slightly extended body which accomodates 235mm travel without any issue
Converted my Ender 3 to dual linear rail Y axis with kevinakasam's Y Axis Railmod for Ender 3
This is an alternative Y tensioner for Kevin's Y axis railmod
This tensioner is only for OG Ender 3 with 2040 extrusion on Y axis
Was facing issue with default tensioner present in the Mod (Need a alen key to adjust tension and took away space on Y axis as it mounts like traditional ender 3 tensioner)
Hence created my own tensioner which mounts at the end of the Y Axis extrusion and provides you with better stability and easy adjustment
Also this ensures the belt is parallel to the Y carriage so there is no issue with belt tension varying in the ends
