| Y Carriage |
As I stated before, I didn't like the long wooden carriage to mount the print bed. I wanted to have my Y Carriage to be completely printable so one does not need to fabricate or special order a laser cut part. The design was inspired by Wire1's
Mendel vitamin-less Y-carriage. The two parts will be held together with 8mm or 5/16 threaded rods.
The Y carriage is in the process of being redesigned and won't start until the 152mm x152mm heat-bed I ordered from Printrbot store arrive by mail.

| Will use LM8UU linear bearings |
The pitch between the smooth rods, center to center will be 70mm apart. I chose this since there wasn't any standard dimension to choose from and also be able to fit on a print bed.
