About this model
I had been searching for a simple way to add a damper to my x-axis stepper motor, but I couldn't find any that I was excited about. This adapter is as simple as I can make it. Benefits compared to other options * Simple to install * No firmware changes required * No structural compromises (it's attaches to the original metal assembly) The only downside is that it requires 3 x M3*8mm screws. The up side is that your printer will be much quieter!
