Add a supporting axle to the worm gear #6

Closed awigen closed 7 years ago

Also hollow out the frame to allow this axle

Thank you for this! Do you have a plan on how to print it?

tobbelobb commented 7 years ago

I made it printable by making base grow by 45 deg. Also added some more set screws that I've missed having there. Merging.

Hi,

I printed it "upside down" compared to before, but the new design should be good as well.

Cheers,

Cool! I thought the overhangs would be too much. I like your version better if it actually works.

I'm also interested if the corner will be strong enough to hang without the bottom_plate flexing.
