Summary


FIXED: I fixed the hole spacing on both the Adapter and the X Carriage


I have uploaded the mounting adapter and also the x carriage that I use. Note that the x carriage will fit 1x LM8UU and 1x LM8LUU bearings and the teeth will fit a GT2 timing belt. Sometime in the future I will add more versions with different screw hole spacing but until then refer to the SolidWorks files.
This design allows for the default E3D fan mount to fit between the two M4 screws holding the extruder in place.
The intention is that the wade extruder can now be mounted with the gears facing the frame to maximize the x axis travel (for the Prusa i3 acrylic frame that sticks out at the top).
