Step 7 of 42 · Chapter 06 — Z axis (and Chapter 06b — Gantry squaring)
Parts:
- one Z bearing block with its M5 nut · already on the bench
- M3×30 SHCS ×1 · Fasteners, Tools & Misc box
- M5×30 BHCS ×1 · Fasteners, Tools & Misc box
Do:
- Set the Z bearing block on the lower clip, cutout outward.
- Drive one M3×30 SHCS and one M5×30 BHCS through block and clip into the T-nuts, snug only.
Check
Block, lower clip, corner frame, one M3 and one M5 through all, cutout outward, and the belt tail does not pull out.
What you're looking at
The Z bearing block tops the sandwich. Two screws run through block, lower clip and the corner frame into the reserved rail-slot T-nuts, clamping the first belt end. The cutout faces the upright, away from the build volume.
