Adjusting Dust Rails

This is a remake of some wonderful design work over at Inventables "https://www.inventables.com/projects/mwp-y-axis-braces":https://www.inventables.com/projects/mwp-y-axis-braces and "https://www.inventables.com/projects/mwp-y-axis-belt-dust-guards":https://www.inventables.com/projects/mwp-y-axis-belt-dust-guards There wasn't any source files so modification wasn't very easy. So I remade it from scratch and narrowed down the materials needed.

Be sure to reference Robert Rieke work in the links above for more detailed instructions since this is really just a variant of his work and all credit should go to him.

I also posted these files over on thingiverse "http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1844698":http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1844698

If you have a large enough laser cutter you can cut these as one piece. I changed the holes to fit M3 hardware and slotted them so you can move the side rails up/down and flush to the wasteboard.

I also made a front/rear variant that you can use the same braces to hold them in place.

.25" 6061 aluminum sheet to mill out 9 or 12 pieces of the stiffeners. .125" acrylic sheet to mill or laser cut out the side plates and front/rear plate. 54 M3-10mm Bolts 36 M3 Drop-in extrusion nuts 2020 size 18 M3 regular nuts

Estimated time: 60 minutes
