This is a remix of arturslab parts for Tech2C's Hypercube. I liked Artur's captive nut idea so I built off that.
I have redesigned my X-gantry to use 1/2" Anodized Aluminium tubes which can be found pretty much everywhere including Home Depot. The bushing holder fits 2 x 1/2" x 5/8" x 1 1/8" bronze bushings. I figured that the larger diameter tubes would provide a bit more rigidity and less sag to my 500mm long gantry.
I've printed these in PETG and put them together and they work great.
