Required hardware:
- 1x 628ZZ bearing
- 1x M5x6mm precision washer
- Original Z axis stepper screws will be too short, you need ~2-3mm longer ones.
Designed to take the weight of the build plate away from Z stepper bearings and put it on the printer body, while simultaneously allowing only the required length of Z stepper axis to enter the coupling (doesnt matter whether you go with elastic/rigid or plum clutch - it will fit them all) which allows the couplings to work as intended without having to set it up by eye.
I advise to use at least 2% support for the cavity at the bottom
