Introduction

The previous Mendel X bracket was compact, but led the toothed belt along a tortuous path with tight radii and reverses of direction. This could cause belts eventually to fail. This design is larger, but less prone to belt failure. It's in the alternative parts section of the distribution (mendel/mechanics/solid-models/cartesian-robot-m4/printed-parts/alternative-parts/) and is simple to print and to fit.
