I uploaded new Conveyor Belt Mounts I uploaded a Conveyor Motor Mount for the direct drive I uploaded a new fusion 360 archive file with the changes

Overview:

This is my attempt at a conveyor belt printer with "infinite" Z height. I used tech2c Hypercube Corey for the XY movement - [https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1752766](https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1752766)

Then I designed the conveyor with the bed tilted at 35 degrees. The software code I got from William Steele and changed it a little bit for my use - https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2358314

I published videos on Youtube to show the progress. https://www.youtube.com/user/ZechyC https://youtu.be/EojScsV528o

I'm busy working on the stainless steel belt. William Steele gave me some pointers that I will implement. In a nutshell - the shim should overlap and use lots of kapton tape that overlaps for tensile strength when you tighten the belt: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HxymWwjpkfw

I attached the Fusion360 archive. The project is very messy. I'm still learning Fusion360.

I used 0.05mm stainless steel shim stock for the belt and kapton tape to close the loop.
