These pieces are to be paired with MGN12H linear guide rails to replace the Y axis rollers. You will need to replace the 2040 extrusion with a 2020 extrusion. These printed parts sit on top of the new extrusion to make the linear guide rails sit at the same height as the original equipment so that you can reuse the original belts, pulleys, and brackets. I would suggest printing them in ABS so that they can withstand the temps of an enclosure without warping. Another benefit of Printing the parts in ABS is that you can glue them together with ABS slurry for a strong bond without changing the length of the parts. Printing the Mid section vertically eliminates the need for supports. Printing the Front and Rear sections side by side, oriented vertically, will allow you to complete the print with only 1 Tree support.

The horizontal mounts are used
