Didn't like that the OG clamp had the Belts not Parallel and crushed a tooth at the Bend. So i over engineered one...

It uses flat a GT2 Profile and 1/4 from a 16T GT2 Pulley with narrowed teeth to not transmit the pulling force into it at the end of the bend. Modeled in Openscad with libraries for GT2 i found Online.
Is it better?
Maybe, couldn't recreate my belt tension accurately enough to know... but its not worse ;)
But it looks cool and didn't explode for one month and counting!
BOM:
8x M2x8
8x M2 nuts
4 OG M3 screws.
Print Settings:
Print with 0.1mm Layer height max.
The top part must be printed on the 45° chamfer.
Use Support for somewhat better looks on the top part.
I did not need a Brim.
Assembly is easier when you put in a longer screw first, makes aligning the Belts and fitting the small screws with nuts a lot easier. Tighten it good, the M2 screw heads need to be at lest flush. I tighten it until the nuts where 1/4 embedded in the plastic. After one month i could tighten it half a turn again, forgot measurements but didn't notice a difference in prints.
These instructions were written by a human who may have misunderstood gravity; follow them at your own risk of sudden plastic betrayal.
Step 1: Print. Step 2: Pray. Step 3: If it breaks, refer to Step 2. I accept no responsibility for entropy or slicing errors.
Happy Printing :)
