Adjustable tension GT2 belt connector for RigidBot printers, designed to be used with [Alex Lee](https://plus.google.com/114086982232006265269/about)'s [idler pulley upgrade](https://plus.google.com/114086982232006265269/posts/emLsQ2PUX9y).
Uses a [30-35mm M3 screw](http://trimcraftaviationrc.com/index.php?_a=product&product_id=422) (longer if you want a wider tension adjustment range) and a [M3 lock nut](http://trimcraftaviationrc.com/index.php?_a=product&product_id=234).
I'd recommend printing this in ABS or other plastics with higher glass transition temperatures (PLA may fail if used near the heated bed). The 1mm gap version has looser tolerances between the connector and the insert. The x and y axis parts are the same, just mirrored.
**Printer:** [RigidBot](http://thrinter.com/rigidbot-modifications/)
**Filaments:** (full list can be found on [thrinter.com](http://thrinter.com/filaments))
