gMax Chimera Direct Drive

This is a direct drive Chimera extruder mount for the gMax printer from gCreate. It routes the x-axis belt through the x-axis v-slot extrusion to hide and protect the belt. The design also reduces the pulling causing twist on the ends of the x-axis caused from belt tension.

The horizontally mounted plate for the extruder reduces the z-axis footprint which provides slightly more z-height.

One thing that needs redesign is the fan shroud and fan bracket. It didn't work out and I haven't gone
