The thickness of the aluminum plate doesn't have to be exactly 6mm, right? I'm in the US, so I'm planning on using 1/4", which is nearly the same. I've read through the forums and it seems like people are using different thicknesses, but I just wanted to make sure. https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?151,291577,291577#msg-291577 Thu, 15 Oct 2026 16:31:34 -0400 Phorum 5.2.23 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?151,291577,294633#msg-294633 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?151,291577,294633#msg-294633 github.com] which gives a link to here in the readme: [github.com] but this is a variation with larger bearings and smooth shafts, and I can't find the standard sized plate. The first link even says it's for the normal size in the title, but the description in the readme says otherwise. Anyone know where the standard 8mm smooth shaft plate design is? I have experience in CADD, so I can make modifications if necessary, but there should be a file somewhere I would think...]]> JSanta General Mendel Topics Tue, 14 Jan 2014 12:53:11 -0500 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?151,291577,292380#msg-292380 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?151,291577,292380#msg-292380 rcazwillis General Mendel Topics Fri, 10 Jan 2014 08:44:26 -0500 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?151,291577,291998#msg-291998 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?151,291577,291998#msg-291998
Also, there are several drawings at the link in my previous post, and they have some significant differences. Is there a most up to date file I should be using?]]> JSanta General Mendel Topics Thu, 09 Jan 2014 14:38:20 -0500 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?151,291577,291598#msg-291598 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?151,291577,291598#msg-291598
The minimum hole diameter is going to depend a lot on the water jet machine being used. I would check with the guy running it and see how small a hole they can do accurately. You may wind up hand drilling all the holes from scratch.]]> uncle_bob General Mendel Topics Wed, 08 Jan 2014 20:37:09 -0500 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?151,291577,291594#msg-291594 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?151,291577,291594#msg-291594 github.com] and make the changes myself?
