Hello all, this is my first post, but I've been at work on my prusa I2 for a few weeks now, off and on.
I am attempting to connect the print plate to the Y belt, and I have some questions. First, my smooth rods are above the threaded rods, and I am using the 1 print plate only, as described in I2 threads.
I've attached some pictures of my setup, since one belt clamp fits in between the print plate and the belt, I assume I should sandwich the belt between 2 belt clamps, with the first one being a spacer, making it as parallel as possible. How should I secure this? Should I just drill through the print plate, and put the nuts on the other end? I assume that would make things not level...
Should I use a screw, to screw into both belt clamps, and the piece of wood, but not going through the wood?
I plan on using a hot plate and a plate of glass on top of the wood print plate, so not sure if nuts on the other side of the print plate would matter?
The instructions on the wiki talk about the 2 print plates... does anyone have a link to instructions referencing the i2 design of just the 1?
Let me know your thoughts, thanks!
