This bracket combines all 11 parts for an X axis end piece and Z axis nut holder into just 3 parts requiring no bearings and only 6 screws to assemble. Two M8 nuts are used with internal printed anti-backlash springs to attach the Z drive rods. The limit sensor is glued to the face of the bracket, pointing at the X Carriage.
