Summary

Many people have advised that this does not fit the V2 of the wanhao duplicator i3. Be wary, and use a remix of this design if you have that printer. I don't have a wanhao i3 any more so won't be making a replacement.

Little clamps to locate your glass bed in the XY axis'.

Per clamp, you'll need:

  • 2x M3 bolt or grub screw (minimum 10mm thread length)
  • 2x M3 nut (or M3 tap)
  • [OPTIONAL] Thermally isolating M3 washer - I used a glass fibre washer, but nylon, rubber, or similar will be fine.

Your bed does need to be disassembled to install this, as the clamp is bolted into place through the riser bolts that hold the bed to the Y carriage.

If you've made the (highly recommended) M3 nyloc nut mod to the bed levelling bolts, they are used to secure the clamp in the Z axis. If not, use the levelling spring, but it may wear as it is tightened and loosened over time.

I also recommend you print this in ABS, due to thermal properties and to avoid warping when your bed gets to temp.
