Z-axis lead screw holders?

#1
The STL file I have for the Z-axis lead screw holder (that bolts to the underside of the top arm) doesn't match what's on my 1.5 XT+. Is there an updated file?

Thanks! I found that the "14L_lead_screw_top left_v1.0.stl" and "14R_lead_screw_top right_v1.0.stl" seem to work as well, though they don't have the countersink for the nylon insert, so it just rides on top. Is there any advantage to using the "30L_lead screw" part vs. those?

It has a counter sink for the nylon pieces. It holds very well. I usually have to hit them with a hammer once to get them in. Another advantage is you dont have to worry about printing a left or right side. You can just print the same model twice.

I ended up using the 14L/R pieces, since they don't require adjustment along the X axis. I used a dab of superglue to stick the nylon bushings into the holes, though Goop or silicone might work a little better.
