The file 'Pretty Good Bed Leveling & Z-Stop Kit For Makerfarm Pegasus 3D Printer Model' is (stl,skp,FCStd) file type, size is 464.3KB.

Summary

This is a kit to improve the Makerfarm Pegasus printer's bed leveling. It requires only an M3 bolt driver. It includes a set of nut/spring traps for the heat bed mount, and a Z-axis end stop which is much more accessible. I don't have a wooden heat bed mount, but I included a set of traps for one, assuming the mounting holes are offset in the same dimensions.

The Z-stop arm uses the HammerNut from CaptainObvious (http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:245103), which makes this retro-fittable. No dissassembly is required to change out the end stop.

From the trap-alum or trap-wood STL file, you'll get:
1) Rectangle-ish nut & spring trap for the bottom of the bed (QTY 4)
2) Round spring cap for the top of the spring (QTY 4)

From the zstop-arm STL file, you'll get:
3) Long t-nut "bar" for the Z-axis adjustment screw, with two holes (QTY 1)
4) Angled arm for the end stop switch, with the HammerNut on one end, and a mounting spot for the switch on the other (QTY 1)

See below for assembly tips.

Edit (200721): Added a stronger version 2 trap for the aluminum plate, and the FreeCad design.
