When I assembled my prusa i3 printer and started printing and experimenting I experienced the following problem.The wobbling of the aluminium frame which was only supported by the nuts down on the rods caused layer height inconsistencies resulting in lower quality prints.
So, I decided to do something to improve the printer's structural rigidity and I came up with this design.I understand that this design is a little unorthodox given that the advantage of the prusa i3 over its predecessor and other similar printer designs is its easier to assemble and more elegant body but it greatly improved my prints and if you are to use your printer as a tool that can be printing for dozens of hours at a time without much maintenance ( for example tightening his bolts and nuts regularly to achieve better sturdiness ), I advise you to implement this design or something similar.
You will need a piece of wood 50x50cm ( I used chipboard ) at around 1cm thickness
to mount the printer and some b
