New X Carriage Hot Off The RepRap
The Darwin has been busily churning out replacement parts for Phoenix, the rebuild of the original wrecked RRChild. The bed corner here is a standard support-free part, but the X Carriage has been modified to include an insert for all the places where the guide bars go through it. This fixes an issue whereby one of the holes (rightmost, in this picture) had a teardrop top in which the guide bar fitted very loosely.
The new carriage also features larger holes for the belts to pass through, which should allow some experimentation with fine-gauge ball-chain.
