The Z motor mount crack is fairly common. There is a beefed-up design to replace it, on Thingiverse AFAIR.

Hi All,
Have had a look at my printer after a couple of years of not using it and a house move in between, and quite a few of the PLA parts have cracked.
I suspect I may have overtightened some of the screws, but am I better off reprinting in ABS or something else to avoid similar problems in the future?
