Z Axis Mods

Remove a z axis arrester

Sometimes the rods for the z axis too tightly squeeze the z platform. Removing one of the bolts can loosen things a bit and prevent skipping stepsalong the z axis.

Remove on of the z nut arresters. Turn nut until is moves down the threaded rod and is out of the way.

Your platform will wobble around, so you'll have to keep it stable by arresting both sides of the nut on the opposite side of the platform.

Bolt other nut arrester to the bottom of nut. Use some washers to get a nice spacing.
