few hundred of USD, and for a reason, they do a great job, they are
pretty finicky things to make, they last for ever (or until you crush
them by mistake because you forgot to plug their cable in before
launching the cycle) Now you can 3D print your own

This project can be used for many 3D printers based on Core X,Y, systems and similar gantry systems that have the Z axis on the printing bed and the X and Y axis on a top gantry that does not perform Z axis movements.Truth is that when you want to print Non Planar sliced geometries thre is a limitat..
Many cheap 3 d printers have the Z axis climbing up and down on threaded rods, one end (usually the bottome one) attached to the stepper motor, the other one.... free to wobble.And this causes some issues with the printing process.Locking the other end from wobbling is something that actually improv..
