Doh! I found various uncommitted changes in my local repo (my bad!). I've pushed the uncommitted code now, it worked for my mini-prusa but it is certainly a tight fit with the frame/nema17 only having a couple mm to spare (which is good because it reduced the plastic needed/print time/machine size significantly).
== y-end-motor-leadscrew y-end-motor-leadscrew is for an experimental leadscrew based reprap (acme-threaded rod drives each axis like some mills do instead of the belts we currently use). That said we never got a leadscrew traversing fast enough for it to work so for now it's an evolutionary offshoot that doesn't go anywhere.
PS. if you find the y-end-motor to be to flimsy try increasing the motor_mount_depth. I reduced it to 6 because that is all that is needed to make a sturdy mount with the quality of prints we are getting out of the makerbot these days but I suspect that that print quality may be above average.
ok, i also forgot to commit + push my mcad updates. If you go to lib/mcad and do a git pull hacklab master that should grab what is needed for this to compile.
Sorry about that!
This one is broken. At least in my build I cannot mount a stepper on it. How is it supposed to look like? What is the purpose of y-end-motor-leadscrew.scad?
