Graber i3 Day 3: Assembling the x-carriage

  • Is this correct?
  • Look also at the part with the “V”. What is it for?
  • How is the leadscrew nut mounted? (M5, not shown in the pics)

Appreciate any advice :wink:

I’d guess that the “V” part is your groove mount, to hold your extruder. I’ve not built an i3 so take that with a grain of salt.
