CR-10 Frame Stiffener Brace (5/16" Allthread) USA

Description

** I Sold My Cr-10S, So I Will Not Be Doing Any More Development / Revisions To These File.** Modeled For My Creality Cr-10S, 300X300X400. Most Frame Stiffener Brace Kits That I See Use 8Mm All-Thread Or Specialty Tube And Glue In Inserts. I Live In A Small Town In Usa And Nobody Stocks Metric All-Thread. So I Developed This Kit Using 5/16-18 Unc All-Thread. Also You Will Notice That I Hide Both Hex Nuts Inside The Printed Parts For A Cleaner Look. The Only Consideration You Need While Assembling Each Side Is If Your Just A Faction Off With Your Rod Length, You Will Need To Remove Of Of The Hidden Nuts And Rotate It 1/6 Of A Turn. This Will Let You Turn The Perfect Length Of Hitting The Slots In The Extruded Rails Perfectly. Well To 1/6Th Of A Rotation. The Parts You Need Are: (2) Upper Frame Brace (Printed) (2) Lower Frame Brace (Printed) (2) 5/16-18 Unc All-Thread X 24" (8) 5/16-18 Unc Hex Nuts (1/2" Across Flats) (4) M3 X 20Mm Long Socket Head Screws (12) M3 X 10Mm Long Socket Head Screws (16) M3 Hex Nuts (16) M3 Hammer Head Nuts For 2020 Aluminum Extrusion. You Can Print Hammer Head Nuts Using This File: Https://Www.Thingiverse.Com/Thing:2469130 Edit: I Created "Frame_Brace_Kit.Stl" Which Is All 4 Braces Rotated In The Correct Orientation For Printing. These Models Are Identical To The Original Individual Files. I Didn'T Have Any 3M X 10Mm Long Socket Head Screws, But I Did Have 12Mm Ones. And I Modeled The Flats Up Just Enough For The Head Clearance And Washers Would Not Fit For Spacers. So I Printed Out Some Quick 2Mm Spacers So The Screws Would Not Bottom Out. Lesson Learned - Count And Measure Your Screws Before You Cad Up Some Models And Print Them. This Kit Does Slightly Reduce Max Printing Height. Edit: It Reduced My Total Height By 7Mm. It Also Reduced My Total Width By 10Mm When The Gantry Is Over 310Mm On The Z Axis. I Never Print Large Max Dimension Boxes, So Its Not An Issue For Me. I Also Ended Up Wrapping The All-Thread In Black Electrical Tape To Give It A Cleaner Appearance.
