CONTAINED HERE IN CONSIDERATION OF YOUR ACCEPTANCE OF SUCH TERMS AND
CONDITIONS.
1. Definitions
a. "Adaptation" means a work based upon the Work, or upon the Work and
other pre-existing works, such as a translation, adaptation,
derivative work, arrangement of music or other alterations of a
literary or artistic work, or phonogram or performance and includes
cinematographic adaptations or any other form in which the Work may be
recast, transformed, or adapted including in any form recognizably
derived from the original, except that a work that constitutes a
Collection will not be considered an Adaptation for the purpose of
this License. For the avoidance of doubt, where the Work is a musical
work, performance or phonogram, the synchronization of the Work in
timed-relation with a moving image ("synching") will be considered an
Adaptation for the purpose of this License.
b. "Collection" means a collection of literary or artistic works, such as
encyclopedias and anthologies, or performances, phonograms or
broadcasts, or other works or subject matter other than works listed
in Section 1(g) below, which, by reason of the selection and
arrangement of their contents, constitute intellectual creations, in
which the Work is included in its entirety in unmodified form along
with one or more other contributions, each constituting separate and
independent works in themselves, which together are assembled into a
collective whole. A work that constitutes a Collection will not be
considered an Adaptation (as defined above) for the purposes of this
License.
c. "Distribute" means to make available to the public the original and
copies of the Work or Adaptation, as appropriate, through sale or
other transfer of ownership.

organization that transmits the broadcast.
g. "Work" means the literary and/or artistic work offered under the terms
of this License including without limitation any production in the
literary, scientific and artistic domain, whatever may be the mode or
form of its expression including digital form, such as a book,
pamphlet and other writing; a lecture, address, sermon or other work
of the same nature; a dramatic or dramatico-musical work; a
choreographic work or entertainment in dumb show; a musical

expressed by a process analogous to photography; a work of applied
art; an illustration, map, plan, sketch or three-dimensional work
relative to geography, topography, architecture or science; a
performance; a broadcast; a phonogram; a compilation of data to the
extent it is protected as a copyrightable work; or a work performed by
a variety or circus performer to the extent it is not otherwise
considered a literary or artistic work.
h. "You" means an individual or entity exercising rights under this
License who has not previously violated the terms of this License with
respect to the Work, or who has received express permission from the
Licensor to exercise rights under this License despite a previous
violation.
i. "Publicly Perform" means to perform public recitations of the Work and
to communicate to the public those public recitations, by any means or
process, including by wire or wireless means or public digital
performances; to make available to the public Works in such a way that
members of the public may access these Works from a place and at a
place individually chosen by them; to perform the Work to the public
by any means or process and the communication to the public of the
performances of the Work, including by public digital performance; to
broadcast and rebroadcast the Work by any means including signs,
sounds or images.
j. "Reproduce" means to make copies of the Work by any means including
without limitation by sound or visual recordings and the right of
fixation and reproducing fixations of the Work, including storage of a
protected performance or phonogram in digital form or other electronic

2. Fair Dealing Rights. Nothing in this License is intended to reduce,
limit, or restrict any uses free from copyright or rights arising from
limitations or exceptions that are provided for in connection with the
copyright protection under copyright law or other applicable laws.
3. License Grant. Subject to the terms and conditions of this License,
Licensor hereby grants You a worldwide, royalty-free, non-exclusive,
perpetual (for the duration of the applicable copyright) license to
exercise the rights in the Work as stated below:
a. to Reproduce the Work, to incorporate the Work into one or more
Collections, and to Reproduce the Work as incorporated in the
Collections;
b. to create and Reproduce Adaptations provided that any such Adaptation,
including any translation in any medium, takes reasonable steps to
clearly label, demarcate or otherwise identify that changes were made
to the original Work. For example, a translation could be marked "The
original work was translated from English to Spanish," or a
modification could indicate "The original work has been modified.";
c. to Distribute and Publicly Perform the Work including as incorporated
in Collections; and,
d. to Distribute and Publicly Perform Adaptations.
The above rights may be exercised in all media and formats whether now
known or hereafter devised. The above rights include the right to make
such modifications as are technically necessary to exercise the rights in
other media and formats. Subject to Section 8(f), all rights not expressly
granted by Licensor are hereby reserved, including but not limited to the
rights described in Section 4(e).
4. Restrictions. The license granted in Section 3 above is expressly made
subject to and limited by the following restrictions:
a. You may Distribute or Publicly Perform the Work only under the terms
of this License. You must include a copy of, or the Uniform Resource
Identifier (URI) for, this License with every copy of the Work You
Distribute or Publicly Perform. You may not offer or impose any terms
on the Work that restrict the terms of this License or the ability of
the recipient of the Work to exercise the rights granted to that
recipient under the terms of the License. You may not sublicense the
Work. You must keep intact all notices that refer to this License and
to the disclaimer of warranties with every copy of the Work You
Distribute or Publicly Perform. When You Distribute or Publicly
Perform the Work, You may not impose any effective technological
measures on the Work that restrict the ability of a recipient of the
Work from You to exercise the rights granted to that recipient under
the terms of the License. This Section 4(a) applies to the Work as
incorporated in a Collection, but this does not require the Collection
apart from the Work itself to be made subject to the terms of this
License. If You create a Collection, upon notice from any Licensor You
must, to the extent practicable, remove from the Collection any credit
as required by Section 4(d), as requested. If You create an
Adaptation, upon notice from any Licensor You must, to the extent
practicable, remove from the Adaptation any credit as required by
Section 4(d), as requested.
b. You may Distribute or Publicly Perform an Adaptation only under: (i)
the terms of this License; (ii) a later version of this License with
the same License Elements as this License; (iii) a Creative Commons
jurisdiction license (either this or a later license version) that
contains the same License Elements as this License (e.g.,
Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 3.0 US) ("Applicable License").
You must include a copy of, or the URI, for Applicable License with
every copy of each Adaptation You Distribute or Publicly Perform. You
may not offer or impose any terms on the Adaptation that restrict the
terms of the Applicable License or the ability of the recipient of the
Adaptation to exercise the rights granted to that recipient under the
terms of the Applicable License. You must keep intact all notices that
refer to the Applicable License and to the disclaimer of warranties
with every copy of the Work as included in the Adaptation You
Distribute or Publicly Perform. When You Distribute or Publicly
Perform the Adaptation, You may not impose any effective technological
measures on the Adaptation that restrict the ability of a recipient of
the Adaptation from You to exercise the rights granted to that
recipient under the terms of the Applicable License. This Section 4(b)
applies to the Adaptation as incorporated in a Collection, but this
does not require the Collection apart from the Adaptation itself to be
made subject to the terms of the Applicable License.
c. You may not exercise any of the rights granted to You in Section 3
above in any manner that is primarily intended for or directed toward
commercial advantage or private monetary compensation. The exchange of
the Work for other copyrighted works by means of digital file-sharing
or otherwise shall not be considered to be intended for or directed
toward commercial advantage or private monetary compensation, provided
there is no payment of any monetary compensation in con-nection with
the exchange of copyrighted works.
d. If You Distribute, or Publicly Perform the Work or any Adaptations or
Collections, You must, unless a request has been made pursuant to
Section 4(a), keep intact all copyright notices for the Work and
provide, reasonable to the medium or means You are utilizing: (i) the
name of the Original Author (or pseudonym, if applicable) if supplied,
and/or if the Original Author and/or Licensor designate another party
or parties (e.g., a sponsor institute, publishing entity, journal) for
attribution ("Attribution Parties") in Licensor's copyright notice,
terms of service or by other reasonable means, the name of such party
or parties; (ii) the title of the Work if supplied; (iii) to the
extent reasonably practicable, the URI, if any, that Licensor
specifies to be associated with the Work, unless such URI does not
refer to the copyright notice or licensing information for the Work;
and, (iv) consistent with Section 3(b), in the case of an Adaptation,
a credit identifying the use of the Work in the Adaptation (e.g.,
"French translation of the Work by Original Author," or "Screenplay
based on original Work by Original Author"). The credit required by
this Section 4(d) may be implemented in any reasonable manner;
provided, however, that in the case of a Adaptation or Collection, at
a minimum such credit will appear, if a credit for all contributing
authors of the Adaptation or Collection appears, then as part of these
credits and in a manner at least as prominent as the credits for the
other contributing authors. For the avoidance of doubt, You may only
use the credit required by this Section for the purpose of attribution
in the manner set out above and, by exercising Your rights under this
License, You may not implicitly or explicitly assert or imply any
connection with, sponsorship or endorsement by the Original Author,
Licensor and/or Attribution Parties, as appropriate, of You or Your
use of the Work, without the separate, express prior written
permission of the Original Author, Licensor and/or Attribution
Parties.
e. For the avoidance of doubt:
i. Non-waivable Compulsory License Schemes. In those jurisdictions in
which the right to collect royalties through any statutory or
compulsory licensing scheme cannot be waived, the Licensor
reserves the exclusive right to collect such royalties for any
exercise by You of the rights granted under this License;
ii. Waivable Compulsory License Schemes. In those jurisdictions in
which the right to collect royalties through any statutory or
compulsory licensing scheme can be waived, the Licensor reserves
the exclusive right to collect such royalties for any exercise by
You of the rights granted under this License if Your exercise of
such rights is for a purpose or use which is otherwise than
noncommercial as permitted under Section 4(c) and otherwise waives
the right to collect royalties through any statutory or compulsory
licensing scheme; and,
iii. Voluntary License Schemes. The Licensor reserves the right to
collect royalties, whether individually or, in the event that the
Licensor is a member of a collecting society that administers
voluntary licensing schemes, via that society, from any exercise
by You of the rights granted under this License that is for a
purpose or use which is otherwise than noncommercial as permitted
under Section 4(c).
f. Except as otherwise agreed in writing by the Licensor or as may be
otherwise permitted by applicable law, if You Reproduce, Distribute or
Publicly Perform the Work either by itself or as part of any
Adaptations or Collections, You must not distort, mutilate, modify or
take other derogatory action in relation to the Work which would be
prejudicial to the Original Author's honor or reputation. Licensor
agrees that in those jurisdictions (e.g. Japan), in which any exercise
of the right granted in Section 3(b) of this License (the right to
make Adaptations) would be deemed to be a distortion, mutilation,
modification or other derogatory action prejudicial to the Original
Author's honor and reputation, the Licensor will waive or not assert,
as appropriate, this Section, to the fullest extent permitted by the
applicable national law, to enable You to reasonably exercise Your
right under Section 3(b) of this License (right to make Adaptations)
but not otherwise.
5. Representations, Warranties and Disclaimer
UNLESS OTHERWISE MUTUALLY AGREED TO BY THE PARTIES IN WRITING AND TO THE
FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, LICENSOR OFFERS THE WORK AS-IS
AND MAKES NO REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND CONCERNING THE
WORK, EXPRESS, IMPLIED, STATUTORY OR OTHERWISE, INCLUDING, WITHOUT
LIMITATION, WARRANTIES OF TITLE, MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
PURPOSE, NONINFRINGEMENT, OR THE ABSENCE OF LATENT OR OTHER DEFECTS,
ACCURACY, OR THE PRESENCE OF ABSENCE OF ERRORS, WHETHER OR NOT
DISCOVERABLE. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OF IMPLIED
WARRANTIES, SO THIS EXCLUSION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.
6. Limitation on Liability. EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE
LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL LICENSOR BE LIABLE TO YOU ON ANY LEGAL THEORY FOR
ANY SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES
ARISING OUT OF THIS LICENSE OR THE USE OF THE WORK, EVEN IF LICENSOR HAS
BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
7. Termination
a. This License and the rights granted hereunder will terminate
automatically upon any breach by You of the terms of this License.
Individuals or entities who have received Adaptations or Collections
from You under this License, however, will not have their licenses
terminated provided such individuals or entities remain in full
compliance with those licenses. Sections 1, 2, 5, 6, 7, and 8 will
survive any termination of this License.
b. Subject to the above terms and conditions, the license granted here is
perpetual (for the duration of the applicable copyright in the Work).
Notwithstanding the above, Licensor reserves the right to release the
Work under different license terms or to stop distributing the Work at
any time; provided, however that any such election will not serve to
withdraw this License (or any other license that has been, or is
required to be, granted under the terms of this License), and this
License will continue in full force and effect unless terminated as
stated above.
8. Miscellaneous
a. Each time You Distribute or Publicly Perform the Work or a Collection,
the Licensor offers to the recipient a license to the Work on the same
terms and conditions as the license granted to You under this License.
b. Each time You Distribute or Publicly Perform an Adaptation, Licensor
offers to the recipient a license to the original Work on the same
terms and conditions as the license granted to You under this License.
c. If any provision of this License is invalid or unenforceable under
applicable law, it shall not affect the validity or enforceability of
the remainder of the terms of this License, and without further action
by the parties to this agreement, such provision shall be reformed to
the minimum extent necessary to make such provision valid and
enforceable.
d. No term or provision of this License shall be deemed waived and no
breach consented to unless such waiver or consent shall be in writing
and signed by the party to be charged with such waiver or consent.
e. This License constitutes the entire agreement between the parties with
respect to the Work licensed here. There are no understandings,
agreements or representations with respect to the Work not specified
here. Licensor shall not be bound by any additional provisions that
may appear in any communication from You. This License may not be
modified without the mutual written agreement of the Licensor and You.
f. The rights granted under, and the subject matter referenced, in this
License were drafted utilizing the terminology of the Berne Convention
for the Protection of Literary and Artistic Works (as amended on
September 28, 1979), the Rome Convention of 1961, the WIPO Copyright
Treaty of 1996, the WIPO Performances and Phonograms Treaty of 1996
and the Universal Copyright Convention (as revised on July 24, 1971).
These rights and subject matter take effect in the relevant
jurisdiction in which the License terms are sought to be enforced
according to the corresponding provisions of the implementation of
those treaty provisions in the applicable national law. If the
standard suite of rights granted under applicable copyright law
includes additional rights not granted under this License, such
additional rights are deemed to be included in the License; this
License is not intended to restrict the license of any rights under
applicable law.

# Summary
** *UPDATE March 28th: Added option for stronger V2 idler (with toggleable handle and additional fixation screw) in CUSTOMIZER* **
This is a remix of [schlotzz](http://www.thingiverse.com/schlotzz)'s [compact direct drive bowden extruder](http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:275593). All credit goes to [schlotzz](http://www.thingiverse.com/schlotzz) for the awesome bavarian engineering on this thing!
The design is highly customizable and works with MK7 or MK8 (and more) hobbed pulleys and features several mounting options! Some parametrization samples can be seen in picture 2.
<br>
This remix includes **several improvements and adaptations**:
* CUSTOMIZER optimized (just open the customizer and generate a bowden extruder fitting your specific components!)
* Different mount options available (Just a simple selection in the CUSTOMIZER toggles between no mount adapter, ANET A8 mount and parametrizable mounting bracket)
* Option to add handle for manual tension release
* Easily adjustable to any bowden pushfit ranging from M5 to M10
<br>
Please use the CUSTOMIZER to generate your suiting extruder! **The files attached to this thing serve as examples only!**
<br>
**NOTE:** If you switch your driving gear, you have to adapt your steps per mm of the extruder accordingly! Further informations and instructions regarding this topic can be found in the [reprap wiki (click to jump to corresponding section)](http://reprap.org/wiki/Triffid_Hunter%27s_Calibration_Guide#E_steps).
# Print Settings
Printer: ANET A8
Rafts: No
Resolution: 0.2
Infill: 40%
Notes:
**Supports highly recommended for ANET A8 mount option!**
All other versions do not require supports.
# Post-Printing
## Instructions
* **Use CUSTOMIZER to adapt mount to your specific hardware!** Just go through all settings here...
* Slice model and print base plate and idler separately (supports for version with ANET A8 mount required)
* Use 2mm drill to clean filament path on base plate
* Screw in your pushfit bowden connector
* Attach 608zz bearing to idler and secure it with a M5 washer and a M5x10 screw
* If using the ANET A8 mount: screw the mount to the top right of the printer frame (use stock screw and an additional M3x18 with suiting nut)
* Attach NEMA17-Motor with three M3x8 (or M3x6) allen head screws (use countersunk holes)
* Attach idler to base plate with a M3x16 screw (Avoid to much tension to allow idler moving freely)
* Fasten hobbed pulley on NEMA17 stepper motor shaft. Align its position to the holes the filament is running trough
* Insert M3 nut into base plate slot
* Use M3 screw of suitable length with washers and a spring to apply pressure oan filament (For ANET A8 users: You can use the spring of the stock extruder! I added some M3 nuts in the core of the spring to keep it centered.)

THE WORK (AS DEFINED BELOW) IS PROVIDED UNDER THE TERMS OF THIS CREATIVE
COMMONS PUBLIC LICENSE ("CCPL" OR "LICENSE"). THE WORK IS PROTECTED BY
COPYRIGHT AND/OR OTHER APPLICABLE LAW. ANY USE OF THE WORK OTHER THAN AS
AUTHORIZED UNDER THIS LICENSE OR COPYRIGHT LAW IS PROHIBITED.
BY EXERCISING ANY RIGHTS TO THE WORK PROVIDED HERE, YOU ACCEPT AND AGREE
TO BE BOUND BY THE TERMS OF THIS LICENSE. TO THE EXTENT THIS LICENSE MAY
BE CONSIDERED TO BE A CONTRACT, THE LICENSOR GRANTS YOU THE RIGHTS
CONTAINED HERE IN CONSIDERATION OF YOUR ACCEPTANCE OF SUCH TERMS AND

1. Definitions
a. "Adaptation" means a work based upon the Work, or upon the Work and
other pre-existing works, such as a translation, adaptation,
derivative work, arrangement of music or other alterations of a
literary or artistic work, or phonogram or performance and includes
cinematographic adaptations or any other form in which the Work may be
recast, transformed, or adapted including in any form recognizably
derived from the original, except that a work that constitutes a
Collection will not be considered an Adaptation for the purpose of
this License. For the avoidance of doubt, where the Work is a musical
work, performance or phonogram, the synchronization of the Work in
timed-relation with a moving image ("synching") will be considered an
Adaptation for the purpose of this License.
b. "Collection" means a collection of literary or artistic works, such as
encyclopedias and anthologies, or performances, phonograms or
broadcasts, or other works or subject matter other than works listed
in Section 1(f) below, which, by reason of the selection and
arrangement of their contents, constitute intellectual creations, in
which the Work is included in its entirety in unmodified form along
with one or more other contributions, each constituting separate and
independent works in themselves, which together are assembled into a
collective whole. A work that constitutes a Collection will not be
considered an Adaptation (as defined above) for the purposes of this
License.

limitations or exceptions that are provided for in connection with the
copyright protection under copyright law or other applicable laws.
3. License Grant. Subject to the terms and conditions of this License,
Licensor hereby grants You a worldwide, royalty-free, non-exclusive,
perpetual (for the duration of the applicable copyright) license to
exercise the rights in the Work as stated below:
a. to Reproduce the Work, to incorporate the Work into one or more
Collections, and to Reproduce the Work as incorporated in the
Collections;
b. to create and Reproduce Adaptations provided that any such Adaptation,
including any translation in any medium, takes reasonable steps to
clearly label, demarcate or otherwise identify that changes were made
to the original Work. For example, a translation could be marked "The
original work was translated from English to Spanish," or a
modification could indicate "The original work has been modified.";
c. to Distribute and Publicly Perform the Work including as incorporated
in Collections; and,
d. to Distribute and Publicly Perform Adaptations.
e. For the avoidance of doubt:
i. Non-waivable Compulsory License Schemes. In those jurisdictions in
which the right to collect royalties through any statutory or
compulsory licensing scheme cannot be waived, the Licensor
reserves the exclusive right to collect such royalties for any
exercise by You of the rights granted under this License;
ii. Waivable Compulsory License Schemes. In those jurisdictions in
which the right to collect royalties through any statutory or
compulsory licensing scheme can be waived, the Licensor waives the
exclusive right to collect such royalties for any exercise by You
of the rights granted under this License; and,
iii. Voluntary License Schemes. The Licensor waives the right to
collect royalties, whether individually or, in the event that the
Licensor is a member of a collecting society that administers
voluntary licensing schemes, via that society, from any exercise
by You of the rights granted under this License.
The above rights may be exercised in all media and formats whether now
known or hereafter devised. The above rights include the right to make
such modifications as are technically necessary to exercise the rights in
other media and formats. Subject to Section 8(f), all rights not expressly
granted by Licensor are hereby reserved.
4. Restrictions. The license granted in Section 3 above is expressly made
subject to and limited by the following restrictions:
a. You may Distribute or Publicly Perform the Work only under the terms
of this License. You must include a copy of, or the Uniform Resource
Identifier (URI) for, this License with every copy of the Work You
Distribute or Publicly Perform. You may not offer or impose any terms
on the Work that restrict the terms of this License or the ability of
the recipient of the Work to exercise the rights granted to that
recipient under the terms of the License. You may not sublicense the
Work. You must keep intact all notices that refer to this License and
to the disclaimer of warranties with every copy of the Work You
Distribute or Publicly Perform. When You Distribute or Publicly
Perform the Work, You may not impose any effective technological
measures on the Work that restrict the ability of a recipient of the
Work from You to exercise the rights granted to that recipient under
the terms of the License. This Section 4(a) applies to the Work as
incorporated in a Collection, but this does not require the Collection
apart from the Work itself to be made subject to the terms of this
License. If You create a Collection, upon notice from any Licensor You
must, to the extent practicable, remove from the Collection any credit
as required by Section 4(b), as requested. If You create an
Adaptation, upon notice from any Licensor You must, to the extent
practicable, remove from the Adaptation any credit as required by
Section 4(b), as requested.
b. If You Distribute, or Publicly Perform the Work or any Adaptations or
Collections, You must, unless a request has been made pursuant to
Section 4(a), keep intact all copyright notices for the Work and
provide, reasonable to the medium or means You are utilizing: (i) the
name of the Original Author (or pseudonym, if applicable) if supplied,
and/or if the Original Author and/or Licensor designate another party
or parties (e.g., a sponsor institute, publishing entity, journal) for
attribution ("Attribution Parties") in Licensor's copyright notice,
terms of service or by other reasonable means, the name of such party
or parties; (ii) the title of the Work if supplied; (iii) to the
extent reasonably practicable, the URI, if any, that Licensor
specifies to be associated with the Work, unless such URI does not
refer to the copyright notice or licensing information for the Work;
and (iv) , consistent with Section 3(b), in the case of an Adaptation,
a credit identifying the use of the Work in the Adaptation (e.g.,
"French translation of the Work by Original Author," or "Screenplay
based on original Work by Original Author"). The credit required by
this Section 4 (b) may be implemented in any reasonable manner;
provided, however, that in the case of a Adaptation or Collection, at
a minimum such credit will appear, if a credit for all contributing
authors of the Adaptation or Collection appears, then as part of these
credits and in a manner at least as prominent as the credits for the
other contributing authors. For the avoidance of doubt, You may only
use the credit required by this Section for the purpose of attribution
in the manner set out above and, by exercising Your rights under this
License, You may not implicitly or explicitly assert or imply any
connection with, sponsorship or endorsement by the Original Author,
Licensor and/or Attribution Parties, as appropriate, of You or Your
use of the Work, without the separate, express prior written
permission of the Original Author, Licensor and/or Attribution
Parties.
c. Except as otherwise agreed in writing by the Licensor or as may be
otherwise permitted by applicable law, if You Reproduce, Distribute or
Publicly Perform the Work either by itself or as part of any
Adaptations or Collections, You must not distort, mutilate, modify or
take other derogatory action in relation to the Work which would be
prejudicial to the Original Author's honor or reputation. Licensor
agrees that in those jurisdictions (e.g. Japan), in which any exercise
of the right granted in Section 3(b) of this License (the right to
make Adaptations) would be deemed to be a distortion, mutilation,
modification or other derogatory action prejudicial to the Original
Author's honor and reputation, the Licensor will waive or not assert,
as appropriate, this Section, to the fullest extent permitted by the
applicable national law, to enable You to reasonably exercise Your
right under Section 3(b) of this License (right to make Adaptations)
but not otherwise.
5. Representations, Warranties and Disclaimer
UNLESS OTHERWISE MUTUALLY AGREED TO BY THE PARTIES IN WRITING, LICENSOR
OFFERS THE WORK AS-IS AND MAKES NO REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES OF ANY
KIND CONCERNING THE WORK, EXPRESS, IMPLIED, STATUTORY OR OTHERWISE,
INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, WARRANTIES OF TITLE, MERCHANTIBILITY,
FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NONINFRINGEMENT, OR THE ABSENCE OF
LATENT OR OTHER DEFECTS, ACCURACY, OR THE PRESENCE OF ABSENCE OF ERRORS,
WHETHER OR NOT DISCOVERABLE. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION
OF IMPLIED WARRANTIES, SO SUCH EXCLUSION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.
6. Limitation on Liability. EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE
LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL LICENSOR BE LIABLE TO YOU ON ANY LEGAL THEORY FOR
ANY SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES
ARISING OUT OF THIS LICENSE OR THE USE OF THE WORK, EVEN IF LICENSOR HAS
BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
7. Termination
a. This License and the rights granted hereunder will terminate
automatically upon any breach by You of the terms of this License.
Individuals or entities who have received Adaptations or Collections
from You under this License, however, will not have their licenses
terminated provided such individuals or entities remain in full
compliance with those licenses. Sections 1, 2, 5, 6, 7, and 8 will
survive any termination of this License.
b. Subject to the above terms and conditions, the license granted here is
perpetual (for the duration of the applicable copyright in the Work).
Notwithstanding the above, Licensor reserves the right to release the
Work under different license terms or to stop distributing the Work at
any time; provided, however that any such election will not serve to
withdraw this License (or any other license that has been, or is
required to be, granted under the terms of this License), and this
License will continue in full force and effect unless terminated as
stated above.
8. Miscellaneous
a. Each time You Distribute or Publicly Perform the Work or a Collection,
the Licensor offers to the recipient a license to the Work on the same
terms and conditions as the license granted to You under this License.
b. Each time You Distribute or Publicly Perform an Adaptation, Licensor
offers to the recipient a license to the original Work on the same
terms and conditions as the license granted to You under this License.
c. If any provision of this License is invalid or unenforceable under
applicable law, it shall not affect the validity or enforceability of
the remainder of the terms of this License, and without further action
by the parties to this agreement, such provision shall be reformed to
the minimum extent necessary to make such provision valid and
enforceable.
d. No term or provision of this License shall be deemed waived and no
breach consented to unless such waiver or consent shall be in writing
and signed by the party to be charged with such waiver or consent.
e. This License constitutes the entire agreement between the parties with
respect to the Work licensed here. There are no understandings,
agreements or representations with respect to the Work not specified
here. Licensor shall not be bound by any additional provisions that
may appear in any communication from You. This License may not be
modified without the mutual written agreement of the Licensor and You.
f. The rights granted under, and the subject matter referenced, in this
License were drafted utilizing the terminology of the Berne Convention
for the Protection of Literary and Artistic Works (as amended on
September 28, 1979), the Rome Convention of 1961, the WIPO Copyright
Treaty of 1996, the WIPO Performances and Phonograms Treaty of 1996
and the Universal Copyright Convention (as revised on July 24, 1971).
These rights and subject matter take effect in the relevant
jurisdiction in which the License terms are sought to be enforced
according to the corresponding provisions of the implementation of
those treaty provisions in the applicable national law. If the
standard suite of rights granted under applicable copyright law
includes additional rights not granted under this License, such
additional rights are deemed to be included in the License; this
License is not intended to restrict the license of any rights under
applicable law.

# Summary
This is a combine work project between myself and [Dan Rogers](http://www.thingiverse.com/knotbeerdan/about). The purpose was to create a print head mount that allows the user some customization to their exact/ or wanted setup **This is for a Bowden setup**. There are 4 variations of the mount:
-Sensor with cooling fan
-Sensor without cooling fan
-No sensor with cooling fan
-No sensor without cooling fan
Many of the parts are interchangeable if you wish to make changes down the road as you upgrade/ change you own setup.
There is some required materials for assembly and they are as follows:
- M3 Hex nut: 8 pieces
- M3 Screw 25mm length: 7 pieces
- M3 screw 20mm length: 1 piece
- The 12 existing screws used to mount the existing carriage to the axis
You can use standard screws or socket head screws
**Printing**
You will want to use some supports when printing the PRINT CARRIAGE PLATE and the HEAD LOCK. **DONT** use supports when printing the cooling fan duct.
See the images for the recommended part orientations when printing.
**Assembly**
Prior to assembly, you will want to press fit four (4) M3 hex nuts into the carriage plate, two (2) into the head lock ( the two slots along the top, confirm they align with the screw holes) and 1 into the fan mount (again confirm they align with the screw hole)
Step 1: Attach the belt holder to the back of the carriage plate ( be sure the opening is facing down) Use four (4) M3x25 screws to do this.
Step 2: Attach the print carriage to the bearings on the X axis. Using the existing 12 screws. It is recommended using the cross tightening method. Then once all screws are in tighten them all down
Step 3: Place the e3d v6 into its opening on the print carriage and attach the desired head lock (fan or no fan). Using two (2) M3x25mm screws **This will be a snug fit**
At this point if you are not using a sensor or the fan your carriage is completed
Step 4: Attach the turbo fan (5015- radial cooling fan) using one (1) M3x20 screw on the upper most hole and one (1) m3x25 screw on the lower hole
Step 5: Attach the cooling ring to the turbo fan
At this point if you are not using a leveling sensor your carriage is completed
Step 6: Attach your leveling sensor (proximity or inductive) to the mount using the included hardware with the purchase of one.
**FINAL STEP FOR EVERY VARIATION**
Secure your wires with a zip tie through the slots on the side of the print carriage. This is HIGHLY recommended as stress relief.
**Sensor**
This thing is designed for an 18mm sensor or a 12mm sensor. So when choosing your print carriage, be sure to select WHICH file you want.
**Sensor offsets**
With this design the offset of the center of the sensor to the center of the nozzle is:
**-28.873mm**
Please post make pictures if you print and use this print head!
**EDIT 2/15/2016**
The Co-designer [Dan Rogers](http://www.thingiverse.com/knotbeerdan/about/) has released a new cooling fan duct that works along with this print head at the following link. http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2086437 . The goal was to create a lower profile cooling duct.

"Hulk" Frame Brace for the Anet A8 by Leo_N is licensed under the Creative Commons - Attribution - Non-Commercial license.

# Summary
<H5>Story</H5>
One of the Anet A8 biggest drawbacks is the lack of stability in the X-axis. The higher you print the more layers may shift or waves may occur on the printed object.
For this reason I designed popular brackets to reduce the motion in X-axis: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1872162
However they will not completely eliminate the issue.
I therefore came up with a more effective means of reducing / eliminating any X-axis motion on the printer.
<H5>Goals / Highlights</H5>
- Eliminates any motion in x-axis direction.
- Is adjustable to fit any frame misalignment's.
- Can always be readjusted to compensate for a loosening frame due to vibrations.
- Uses less filament compared to other designs.
- Easy fits on a print bed.
<H5>Parts selection</H5>
Select files
- "Hulk_Right_Top_Arm_wBracket_Leo_N.stl" and
- "Hulk_Left_Top_Arm_wBracket_Leo_N.stl"
if you have my "Brackets" (http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1872162) installed on your printer. The "Brackets" are not needed for the "Hulk" braces if you haven't already printed them.
You will want to open the holes by using a sharp knife. After the braces have been mounted use a 3.5mm drill and then secure the part with screw, washer and nut (see picture).
If you are not using the Brackets then use files
- "Hulk_Right_Top_Arm_Leo_N.stl" and
- "Hulk_Left_Top_Arm_Leo_N.stl"
for assembly.
Files
- "Hulk_Right_Bottom_Support_Leo_N.stl" and
- "Hulk_Left_Bottom_Support_Leo_N.stl"
will be need in either case.
<H5>Installation</H5>
You will need the following:
- 2 x M3x20 - 22mm screws MAX!
- 2 x M3 nuts
- 2 x 3mm washers
To install each brace you will want to insert the nut into the upper brace and then place it into the lower holder. Next take the washer and screw and insert it into the assembly.
Remove the top screw on the lower acrylic support part on each side.
Now take the complete brace and start at the top by lodging the part to the acrylic frame and then push the lower frame brace onto the lower acrylic part. It should snap in.
Take the screws you removed earlier, optionally add washers and insert both screws to the lower acrylic supports.
The next step is to slowly and carefully turn the screw until the brace has a snug fit and the upper portion of the printer frame is no longer moving in X-axis.
<H4>Be very careful not to put too much force on the frame by over tightening the screw!! </H4>
Please let me know if you have a problem with the design so I can improve it if necessary or you what new features to the design.
Also please post a picture with comments if you have made one.
Thanks.
Leo
<B>Update 2017.05.25</B>
Updated file "Hulk_Left_Bottom_Support_Leo_N" due to very little gap between the bottom support and the x-carriage stepper motor on some Anet frames.
<B>Update 2017.05.28</B>
Lengthened both Bottom_Support's by 0.2mm.
<B>Update 2017.05.30</B>
Removed holes on the bottom supports to avoid contact with the stepper motor if users
selected screws that are to long.
<B>Update 2017.07.22</B>
Updated both lower supports by reducing height of the mount that support the top braces by -2.0mm. Use the appropriate plates (1mm, 1.5mm or 2mm) included in the file section if your braces are still too loose. Place plate inside the bottom support (picture #4) for height adjustment.
# Print Settings
Printer: Anet A8
Supports: Yes
Resolution: Your choice
Infill: 15%
Notes:
For ease of print I would print with PLA.
If you are going to setup your printer in an enclosure then you will have to select another filament material like ABS.
Use 0.8mm wall thickness.
You might need to use "Rafts" to avoid warping depending on your printer setup.
Rotate the upper braces by 25° to fit the build plate and make sure you set your Slicer to 100% scale.
Here is a wonderfully made video about the Hulk braces and how to install them.

2. Fair Dealing Rights. Nothing in this License is intended to reduce,
limit, or restrict any uses free from copyright or rights arising from
limitations or exceptions that are provided for in connection with the
copyright protection under copyright law or other applicable laws.
3. License Grant. Subject to the terms and conditions of this License,
Licensor hereby grants You a worldwide, royalty-free, non-exclusive,
perpetual (for the duration of the applicable copyright) license to
exercise the rights in the Work as stated below:
a. to Reproduce the Work, to incorporate the Work into one or more
Collections, and to Reproduce the Work as incorporated in the
Collections;
b. to create and Reproduce Adaptations provided that any such Adaptation,
including any translation in any medium, takes reasonable steps to
clearly label, demarcate or otherwise identify that changes were made
to the original Work. For example, a translation could be marked "The
original work was translated from English to Spanish," or a
modification could indicate "The original work has been modified.";
c. to Distribute and Publicly Perform the Work including as incorporated
in Collections; and,
d. to Distribute and Publicly Perform Adaptations.
The above rights may be exercised in all media and formats whether now
known or hereafter devised. The above rights include the right to make
such modifications as are technically necessary to exercise the rights in
other media and formats. Subject to Section 8(f), all rights not expressly
granted by Licensor are hereby reserved, including but not limited to the
rights described in Section 4(e).
4. Restrictions. The license granted in Section 3 above is expressly made
subject to and limited by the following restrictions:
a. You may Distribute or Publicly Perform the Work only under the terms
of this License. You must include a copy of, or the Uniform Resource
Identifier (URI) for, this License with every copy of the Work You
Distribute or Publicly Perform. You may not offer or impose any terms
on the Work that restrict the terms of this License or the ability of
the recipient of the Work to exercise the rights granted to that
recipient under the terms of the License. You may not sublicense the
Work. You must keep intact all notices that refer to this License and
to the disclaimer of warranties with every copy of the Work You
Distribute or Publicly Perform. When You Distribute or Publicly
Perform the Work, You may not impose any effective technological
measures on the Work that restrict the ability of a recipient of the
Work from You to exercise the rights granted to that recipient under
the terms of the License. This Section 4(a) applies to the Work as
incorporated in a Collection, but this does not require the Collection
apart from the Work itself to be made subject to the terms of this
License. If You create a Collection, upon notice from any Licensor You
must, to the extent practicable, remove from the Collection any credit
as required by Section 4(d), as requested. If You create an
Adaptation, upon notice from any Licensor You must, to the extent
practicable, remove from the Adaptation any credit as required by
Section 4(d), as requested.
b. You may Distribute or Publicly Perform an Adaptation only under: (i)
the terms of this License; (ii) a later version of this License with
the same License Elements as this License; (iii) a Creative Commons
jurisdiction license (either this or a later license version) that
contains the same License Elements as this License (e.g.,
Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 3.0 US) ("Applicable License").
You must include a copy of, or the URI, for Applicable License with
every copy of each Adaptation You Distribute or Publicly Perform. You
may not offer or impose any terms on the Adaptation that restrict the
terms of the Applicable License or the ability of the recipient of the
Adaptation to exercise the rights granted to that recipient under the
terms of the Applicable License. You must keep intact all notices that
refer to the Applicable License and to the disclaimer of warranties
with every copy of the Work as included in the Adaptation You
Distribute or Publicly Perform. When You Distribute or Publicly
Perform the Adaptation, You may not impose any effective technological
measures on the Adaptation that restrict the ability of a recipient of
the Adaptation from You to exercise the rights granted to that
recipient under the terms of the Applicable License. This Section 4(b)
applies to the Adaptation as incorporated in a Collection, but this
does not require the Collection apart from the Adaptation itself to be
made subject to the terms of the Applicable License.
c. You may not exercise any of the rights granted to You in Section 3
above in any manner that is primarily intended for or directed toward
commercial advantage or private monetary compensation. The exchange of
the Work for other copyrighted works by means of digital file-sharing
or otherwise shall not be considered to be intended for or directed
toward commercial advantage or private monetary compensation, provided
there is no payment of any monetary compensation in con-nection with
the exchange of copyrighted works.
d. If You Distribute, or Publicly Perform the Work or any Adaptations or
Collections, You must, unless a request has been made pursuant to
Section 4(a), keep intact all copyright notices for the Work and
provide, reasonable to the medium or means You are utilizing: (i) the
name of the Original Author (or pseudonym, if applicable) if supplied,
and/or if the Original Author and/or Licensor designate another party
or parties (e.g., a sponsor institute, publishing entity, journal) for
attribution ("Attribution Parties") in Licensor's copyright notice,
terms of service or by other reasonable means, the name of such party
or parties; (ii) the title of the Work if supplied; (iii) to the
extent reasonably practicable, the URI, if any, that Licensor
specifies to be associated with the Work, unless such URI does not
refer to the copyright notice or licensing information for the Work;
and, (iv) consistent with Section 3(b), in the case of an Adaptation,
a credit identifying the use of the Work in the Adaptation (e.g.,
"French translation of the Work by Original Author," or "Screenplay
based on original Work by Original Author"). The credit required by
this Section 4(d) may be implemented in any reasonable manner;
provided, however, that in the case of a Adaptation or Collection, at
a minimum such credit will appear, if a credit for all contributing
authors of the Adaptation or Collection appears, then as part of these
credits and in a manner at least as prominent as the credits for the
other contributing authors. For the avoidance of doubt, You may only
use the credit required by this Section for the purpose of attribution
in the manner set out above and, by exercising Your rights under this
License, You may not implicitly or explicitly assert or imply any
connection with, sponsorship or endorsement by the Original Author,
Licensor and/or Attribution Parties, as appropriate, of You or Your
use of the Work, without the separate, express prior written
permission of the Original Author, Licensor and/or Attribution
Parties.
e. For the avoidance of doubt:
i. Non-waivable Compulsory License Schemes. In those jurisdictions in
which the right to collect royalties through any statutory or
compulsory licensing scheme cannot be waived, the Licensor
reserves the exclusive right to collect such royalties for any
exercise by You of the rights granted under this License;
ii. Waivable Compulsory License Schemes. In those jurisdictions in
which the right to collect royalties through any statutory or
compulsory licensing scheme can be waived, the Licensor reserves
the exclusive right to collect such royalties for any exercise by
You of the rights granted under this License if Your exercise of
such rights is for a purpose or use which is otherwise than
noncommercial as permitted under Section 4(c) and otherwise waives
the right to collect royalties through any statutory or compulsory
licensing scheme; and,
iii. Voluntary License Schemes. The Licensor reserves the right to
collect royalties, whether individually or, in the event that the
Licensor is a member of a collecting society that administers
voluntary licensing schemes, via that society, from any exercise
by You of the rights granted under this License that is for a
purpose or use which is otherwise than noncommercial as permitted
under Section 4(c).
f. Except as otherwise agreed in writing by the Licensor or as may be
otherwise permitted by applicable law, if You Reproduce, Distribute or
Publicly Perform the Work either by itself or as part of any
Adaptations or Collections, You must not distort, mutilate, modify or
take other derogatory action in relation to the Work which would be
prejudicial to the Original Author's honor or reputation. Licensor
agrees that in those jurisdictions (e.g. Japan), in which any exercise
of the right granted in Section 3(b) of this License (the right to
make Adaptations) would be deemed to be a distortion, mutilation,
modification or other derogatory action prejudicial to the Original
Author's honor and reputation, the Licensor will waive or not assert,
as appropriate, this Section, to the fullest extent permitted by the
applicable national law, to enable You to reasonably exercise Your
right under Section 3(b) of this License (right to make Adaptations)
but not otherwise.
5. Representations, Warranties and Disclaimer
UNLESS OTHERWISE MUTUALLY AGREED TO BY THE PARTIES IN WRITING AND TO THE
FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, LICENSOR OFFERS THE WORK AS-IS
AND MAKES NO REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND CONCERNING THE
WORK, EXPRESS, IMPLIED, STATUTORY OR OTHERWISE, INCLUDING, WITHOUT
LIMITATION, WARRANTIES OF TITLE, MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
PURPOSE, NONINFRINGEMENT, OR THE ABSENCE OF LATENT OR OTHER DEFECTS,
ACCURACY, OR THE PRESENCE OF ABSENCE OF ERRORS, WHETHER OR NOT
DISCOVERABLE. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OF IMPLIED
WARRANTIES, SO THIS EXCLUSION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.
6. Limitation on Liability. EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE
LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL LICENSOR BE LIABLE TO YOU ON ANY LEGAL THEORY FOR
ANY SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES
ARISING OUT OF THIS LICENSE OR THE USE OF THE WORK, EVEN IF LICENSOR HAS
BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
7. Termination
a. This License and the rights granted hereunder will terminate
automatically upon any breach by You of the terms of this License.
Individuals or entities who have received Adaptations or Collections
from You under this License, however, will not have their licenses
terminated provided such individuals or entities remain in full
compliance with those licenses. Sections 1, 2, 5, 6, 7, and 8 will
survive any termination of this License.
b. Subject to the above terms and conditions, the license granted here is
perpetual (for the duration of the applicable copyright in the Work).
Notwithstanding the above, Licensor reserves the right to release the
Work under different license terms or to stop distributing the Work at
any time; provided, however that any such election will not serve to
withdraw this License (or any other license that has been, or is
required to be, granted under the terms of this License), and this
License will continue in full force and effect unless terminated as
stated above.
8. Miscellaneous
a. Each time You Distribute or Publicly Perform the Work or a Collection,
the Licensor offers to the recipient a license to the Work on the same
terms and conditions as the license granted to You under this License.
b. Each time You Distribute or Publicly Perform an Adaptation, Licensor
offers to the recipient a license to the original Work on the same
terms and conditions as the license granted to You under this License.
c. If any provision of this License is invalid or unenforceable under
applicable law, it shall not affect the validity or enforceability of
the remainder of the terms of this License, and without further action
by the parties to this agreement, such provision shall be reformed to
the minimum extent necessary to make such provision valid and
enforceable.
d. No term or provision of this License shall be deemed waived and no
breach consented to unless such waiver or consent shall be in writing
and signed by the party to be charged with such waiver or consent.
e. This License constitutes the entire agreement between the parties with
respect to the Work licensed here. There are no understandings,
agreements or representations with respect to the Work not specified
here. Licensor shall not be bound by any additional provisions that
may appear in any communication from You. This License may not be
modified without the mutual written agreement of the Licensor and You.
f. The rights granted under, and the subject matter referenced, in this
License were drafted utilizing the terminology of the Berne Convention
for the Protection of Literary and Artistic Works (as amended on
September 28, 1979), the Rome Convention of 1961, the WIPO Copyright
Treaty of 1996, the WIPO Performances and Phonograms Treaty of 1996
and the Universal Copyright Convention (as revised on July 24, 1971).
These rights and subject matter take effect in the relevant
jurisdiction in which the License terms are sought to be enforced
according to the corresponding provisions of the implementation of
those treaty provisions in the applicable national law. If the
standard suite of rights granted under applicable copyright law
includes additional rights not granted under this License, such
additional rights are deemed to be included in the License; this
License is not intended to restrict the license of any rights under
applicable law.

license. Notwithstanding the foregoing two (2) sentences, if Creative

# Summary
This x-belt tensioner works with the original right side bearing block that came with the printer, so you do not need to print a new one. It also tightens against the x-axis rods instead of the right bearing block. This is to prevent binding along the z-axis when the x-belt is tightened.
Be sure to see the readme.txt file for more information on building and installing.

This x-belt tensioner works with the original right side bearing block that came with the printer, so you do not need to print a new one. It also tightens against the x-axis rods instead of the right bearing block. This is to prevent binding along the z-axis when the x-belt is tightened.
Parts needed:
The x-belt will need to be approx 4in (10cm) longer.
Machine Screw 4mm x 30mm with hex nut, two of each.
Machine screw, 3mm x 24mm with lock nut (the kind with a plastic insert)
Remove and reuse the existing x-belt pulley.
Installation:
After printing the tensioner, sand the inside of the rectangular slot, if necessary, until the x-belt pully fits inside loosely. Make sure the 4mm screws fit into the two holes on either side of the slot. Enlarge them with a drill bit if needed. Embed the hex nuts into the block at the hex shaped recesses of the 4mm screw holes: Thread a nut onto the 4mm screw, then hold it with a pair of pliers and heat the nut for 5 to 10 seconds with a small torch or cigarette lighter. Carefully press the nut straight down into the hex recess, then repeat for the other one. Install the pulley into the slot and secure it with the 3mm screw & lock nut. Do not tighten it too much, the pulley needs to be able to spin freely. Mount the completed tensioner, with a new belt, as shown in the photo. Tighten the 4mm screws evenly until you remove all slack from the belt.
