I have got a little incident with my Ormerod.
It's possible to buy it?

Hi Raffy, is it the printed part that has the Y idler in?
Have you a picture of the break? I broke mine if it's that part and just about managed to print a replacement, but we can help you if you can't print.

Sorry for the delay....
No the part is a lasercut part,
The black part.


Now I have resolved with some epoxy and a heat shrinkable smiling smiley, but I'm not so sure that it will be reliable, so if is possible to buy the original I think is better, or I can try to realize it with CNC in aluminium I don't know if there is somewere a dwg or similar of the part.



Thank you.

Hi raffybuffy

Send me an email to support at reprappro dot com and I'll organise a replacement y-axis-end-plate, under warranty. We don't have access to the RS customer database, so please include you full name and address, your RS order number, and whether you have a kit with red or green printed plastic parts.

It's a clever fix Raffybuffy, well done for that.
I'm glad Ian is sorting you out. If it had been the printed part I or someone closer to you would of gladdly help I'm sure.
