My new Snapmaker 2.0 A351 😁

Based on that great idea I am trying to replicate the linear rail setup.

I ordered these linear rails that fit perfectly lengthwise in the enclosure:

The height between the bottom of the rail and the Snapmaker base is 3/4"+3/16" (I used some magnetic shims - still figuring out how to install this more permanently) and due to some clearance issue on the Snapmaker bed used a small washer to fill the gap between the outer most screw hole in the linear rail slide.

The holes on the linear rail are tapped M5-0.8. I used long M4 screws to “catch” the hole. Seems to work no problem…

Still need to figure out how to attach the linear rail. Maybe some angle brackets side ways on the front and back 80-20 enclosure frame and supports along the rail…

@stefix Vielen Dank für die geniale Idee…

I vote this the best upgrade idea 2021!
