This design is intentionally very similar to the belt anchor used in the Mammoth-3D toolhead, and its installation on the CNC Rat Rig Toolhead follows the same steps as that belt anchor for Mammoth-3D, shown here (starting at timestamp 4:31):
However, since the Mammoth-3D anchor is designed for 6 mm belts instead of the Rat Rig's 9 mm belts, and it's difficult to extract an easily tweakable CAD file of the anchor alone from the, erm, mammoth STEP file of the Mammoth-3D AWD gantry, I decided to create a belt anchor for the Rat Rig CNC toolhead from scratch in FreeCAD instead of tweaking Mammoth-3D's existing CAD. While the anchor may not be a remix per se of the original belt anchor model, I did follow Mammoth-3D's Creative Commons non-commercial share-alike license.
The photo shows the belt clip anchor install in one of the front uprights of the Rat Rig CNC toolhead.
To print the anchor, I used a 0.4 mm nozzle with a 0.15 mm layer height and 100% infill.
