Z-axis Linear Rod and Leadscrew Stabilizer for Geeetech i3 Pro B printer with 8mm acrylic frame
Description
In 2015 I Purchased A Geeetech I3 Pro B Printer Kit With 8Mm Acrylic Frame. Attempts To Use This Printer As It Was Originally Designed Always Resulted In Very Rough Vertical Walls Due To Poor Mechanical Tolerance With The Z-Axis Threaded Rods. This Caused Significant Problems Printing Any Part Which Required Tight Tolerances, Such As Parts With Integrated Print-In-Place Hinges. I Tried Several 'Solutions' Which I Found Here On Thingiverse And On Other Internet Sources, Including The Common Parts Which Attempt To Physically Decouple The Z-Axis Threaded Rod From The X-Assembly; These Helped A Bit, But Did Not Solve The Root-Cause Of The Problem. The Parts You Find Here (The Yellow Parts In The Photos) Are What I Finally Came Up With To Truly Fix The Problem. The Xyz Calibration Cubes Photo Above Shows The Before And After Results Up-Close.
