Topic: Junior 1.0 linear bearing in the Z-right rod

I have designed these parts, trying to have a better Z axis in my printer and also maybe it can improve the X level carriage avoiding the right side hanging.

They fit a lm10uu linear bearing

To hold the bearing is needed 4 M3x10mm screws and 4 nuts. Also need 2 M3x8mm screws to attach in the X axis carriage

Assembly is a little tricky, you must take off the upper side cover and all the grey metal plate screws, so you can lift a Little bit this plate and the right smooth rod to insert de bearing

Once the lm10uu is in the rod, you can assembly back everything
