=====================================================================

UPDATE 10/16/16

Fixed Drill_Template_2 and Drill_Template_4. Went to use them and realized there was a 1 mm error.

=====================================================================

UPDATE 10/10/16

Uploaded Version 2 slider brackets with slots and screw holes to clamp rods in place (like the original Smartfriendz pieces). I noticed my X-axis sagged slightly under the tension of the belts without these.

Also uploaded templates to use to drill the holes for mounting the corner pieces. This helps align the holes properly. These are placed on the outside of the box. These will ONLY WORK WITH 1/2 INCH WOOD.

=====================================================================

Here is my pseudo-SmartrapCore design. I made some design changes inspired by the X3D CoreXY printer (http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:730199) so that the corner brackets don't hang over the edges.

This design is for 8 mm rods.

The corner brackets mount with three M3 screws and nuts each. Surprisingly, they are quite sturdy and don't budge at all. Make sure to tighten them well (use nylon lock nuts).

FYI: I would recommend using the y-axis sliders that I uploaded instead of the official ones. I am not sure the belts will align properly otherwise.

I've uploaded both STL and STEP files. I had to put very large tolerances on the 8mm holes (8.2 mm) because of the poor dimensional accuracy of my old printer. If you are having trouble editing the STEP files, let me know and I can reupload part files with tighter tolerances!

Please post your make if you use them.
