About this model

Updates 11/07/2019 I just uploaded STEP files so anyone can edit things such as tolerances and similar stuff. I wanted to have a whole AM8 CAD model in order to check some details. That's why I (re)designed X axis printed pieces with rounder corners. Pieces needed: 8mm diameter smooth rods (x2) Tr8 leadscrews (x2) Tr8 leadscrew bronze nuts (x2) LM8LUU linear bearings (x2) DISCLAIMER: I haven't printed them so far, I have to print them to check how tight pieces fit. However, if you want to print them at your own responsibility, feel free to do so while I print them myself.
