Voron V0.1 Hinged Tophat Spacer w/ Cable Routing

Update 23 Jan 23 - Shall we call this the official exit from beta?! Huzzah! While there may yet be additional improvements, the design seems to be working as intended for those who have printed it. Thank you everyone who has provided feedback!

This was heavily inspired by, but is not a remix of, the excellent design by 93djen (https://www.printables.com/model/109713-voron-v01-tophat-spacer-with-hinges).

After printing theirs and installing it, I felt like some quality of life adjustments could be made. Rather than attempt modification of theirs, this was modeled from the ground up using the openly available V0.1 step file. 

All files can be printed without support. Find the flattest surface and place that on the print bed.

Post processing: The current design has fairly tight tolerances on the holes for the tophat posts; be sure to use a deburring tool or hobby knife to ensure they are reamed slightly. I’ll loosen the tolerances on the next release.
