Interesting mod :).
I’ll have a look to see how I can implement this on my printer (dual 10x2 trapezoidal spindle).

The 123D Design files are with it, so feel free to modify…
Let me know your results.

Can you suggest me a free (opensource) cad software for designing objects? (perhaps with stl export?)
123D Design is nice though, but is has some drawbacks and its proprietary…

cheers,

Most used softwares are Opencad for very simple objects and FreeCAD which is far better but not so easy to master and with a lot of bugs.

Thanks for the hint.
