About this model

These mounts are for the x-axis motor and idler pulley mounts for the Tevo Tarantula 3D printer. These can be used in conjunction with the Tarantula's stock z-axis carriages or with custom z-axis carriages that do not incorporate mounts for the x-axis motor and pulleys. There are two versions of the motor mount. One incorporates a lower appendage that can be used as an adjustable trigger for a z-min end stop. There is a place to embed a M3 lock nut in the bottom, and then you would use a long M3 screw to engage the z-min end stop. If you are installing these with the Tarantula's stock z-axis carriages in place you will need 30mm M3 screws for the motor mount and 30mm M5 screws (or longer) for the idler pulleys. You may also want/need to make sure these brackets are fully seated on the alum…
