Are you able to tweak the design so we can install the Lightweight Gantry to hold the Rail on the front side? Looks Like is just missing a hole for that.

#

Unless in intended it to be held with just one M5 on each end?

A screw would obstruct the belt path. I can send you the step files

Added a Counter Bore for Ultra Thin Flat Head M5:

I like the screws, I need some of those for my collection. Could have used some of those on many occasions.

Yeah I discovered them with the VzToolhead

Could tweak cooling but it printed nice without support

Nice prints

Agree wrong place. But that was a pun about he Punisher logo. πŸ˜‰

They are in the normal server too

#

That's the rigs name till I change it after the first print, going back to correct server

Just received my Ultra thin M5x6mm screws, I had to enlarge the Counter bore a bit. I just started reprinting them and will post the updated stl once I confirmed the fit.

#

the ALi specs said the Head diameter was max 8.8mm but received 9.48mm ones

Took me a while to install but here's the end result

@shadow minnow What did you do to get the screw to fit? I ordered the ones from the link and they're also around 9.5mms. I'm currently turning one down in my drill with a file but its taking a long time.

sonic girder
#

actually never mind. Turning seems to work really well. I have a nice fit now

shadow minnow
#

I'll look it up later today and post them

its all good! The swap was fairly easy and relativly problem free. I forget how long my X rail is but it was just slightly too long for your endstop bumper. I ended up throwing in an insert into the bottom M5 bolt hole and attaching my old one. Thanks!
