hi greg, nice item.
I added a 'tolerance' to the outer shell to allow it to nest better, the one with no clearance simply wouldn't nest for me (and a few others on #reprap commented the same). Also, a clipping plane to optionally cut the bearings in half so they can be retrofitted onto an existing rewrap without tak
ing it apart. Would you prefer to incorporate these changes, or suggest i make a derivative?
thanks, hbs
It looks like triffid_hunter has posted a derivative that is an improvement. I suggest you make a derivative of his.
