Hey,

i thought it was time to replace that toothless idlers. This is a modified version of freemark's x-belt tensioner. It has a conical mount for the bearing of the idler.

What you need in addition:

  • 1x GT2 toothed idler with:
    5mm inner hole diameter
    20 teeth
    18mm outer diameter
    9mm thickness
  • 1x M5 screw (>16mm)
  • 1x M5 nut
  • 2x M4 30mm screws
  • 2x M4 nuts

for further information read the readme of the original tensioner

edit: added 3mm axle version

! hint: some modern Anet A8 might not have 3d printed parts. Check the remixes if your Anet has injection molded parts !
