This Y axis belt holder is for a specific Prusa i3 variant - ANet A8.
The original Y belt holder was laser-cut acrylic, which presented 2 problems:
1. It held the Y belt at a level higher than pulleys at both ends, which resulted in excessive vibration when the plates is near the minimum of maximum of Y axis.
2. It felt pretty brittle. I wasn't too sure how much I could tighten it. As the result, I was unable to tighten the Y belt tensioner sufficiently.
This design solves both probl
