This is a minimally-intrusive brace and tensioner system for the Anet/CTC/etc A8.
This adds a lot of rigidity to the frame without a lot of support material, by taking advantage of the stress from tensioning the pulley (like a guitar string, more tension in the frame means it vibrates at a higher frequency).
My goal with this design was to make it quick to print and quick to install, unfortunately I only got one of the two right.
Note that the small holes for the upper rods are in diffe
