I wanted to provide more space for the umbilical cable to the tool-head. A popular mod to achieve this the Utility Belt by Thiago Locatelli found here, however I did not find the look to be really consistent with the rest of the printer so I reworked the original to replicate the hexagonal pattern from the skirt of the printer (obviously without holes).

The following changes have been made compared to the original utility belt.

  • Single piece front and sides with hexagonal pattern.
  • Modified corners with post to fix to extrusion
  • Modified top-hat corner pieces without fixings

This version does not make use of magnets for the top-hat and instead uses the original approach of printed posts. The holes for the heat-set inserts still remain on the back corners should they be needed.

Assembly requires 16 half length M3 heat-set inserts for the front, back and sides which are then fixed with screws through the corner pieces. The corners can then be fixed to the extrusion using the nuts originally assigned to the stock top-hat.

For the top-hat you can use the provided new corner pieces which have the mounting to fix the top-hat to the extruder removed. Note also that I intentionally wanted to print the front, back and sides in a single piece. A sufficiently large bed is required as they will not fit on the bed of a Voron 0.1.
