3D model description

This is the first piece I upload to thingiverse.

The story of this piece begins when I wanted to improve the bq prusa i3 hephestos printer, to put a metal tray with through holes to calibrate the base with nuts underneath, I needed to change the system of my printer, since the metal tray is thinner than the one that brings the hephestos and therefore does not hold the piece that activates the y-axis stop microswitch.

Searching I found: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:335726

When printing and testing I couldn't fit the bracket between the 2 rods (I didn't disassemble them to test either), I tried to trim it but it still didn't fit, I decided to adapt the bracket by shortening the distances between rods by a few millimeters.

The result is the one I show you.

The photo shows the "original" part on the left (with the crude attempt at trimming to save the part) and the part modified by me on the right.

I hope there is someone who can use it.
