Printing Guide

Primary Color

Example: mammoth Voron Z Idler Main Body Left.stl These files have no prefix in their filename so are safe to print in your primary color.

Accent Color

Example: [A] mammoth-3D Voron2.4 Z Idler_V1.3 A x2.stl These files are prefixed with [A] and are intended to be printed in your accent color.

Quantity Required

Example: mammoth-3D Voron2.4 Z Idler_V1.3 Tensioner x2.stl If any file ends with x#, that is telling you the quantity of that part required to build the Z-Axis Belt Tensioner.

Support and Drilling Out Holes

No need for that

Layer Height and Line Width

Some parts have supporting layers to allow unsupported features to be printed successfully. These supports are designed to work at a layer height of 0.2mm, so they may not be sliced correctly if your layer height is not 0.2mm.

Tip

The "Tensioner" can be printed only once and you don't need to keep it on the printer. You will only need them to tension your belts. But can be removed afterwards.
