Milled Parts

Material should be under 7.2mm thick, thicker and you will need longer hardware and might lose some Y travel. All radii and holes are ⅛″ or larger, so use end mills ⅛″ or smaller.

Part Name QTY Description
Y-Plate 1 Bed plate
XY_Frame 2 (M)Front and Back
Y_Frame 2 (M)Sides
XZ_Frame 1 Main Piece

(M) Mirror one of these parts if you have a single sided material.

These .DXF’s are in millimeters.

Printed Parts

I used 20% infill and 3 perimeters for all parts, very forgiving. No support needed!
