Upgrade for LowRider

So my LowRider is built and starting to make parts. I started to think about the fact that I have to move my machine in the spring and want to make this a simple as possible. The only real problem that I see is the belts on the Y-axis, you know cable ties etc. Well I went looking for an ajustable solution and found this on thingiverse and gave it a try. All I can say is WOW, I love this method and I think @vicious1 Ryan should make these end clamps standard in the design. If you haven’t built your machine yet or if you have it’s worth switching to these ends. They are derived from the Primo design.

Now to move the LR, I will simple put a transport clamp on the x-axis, print a spare set of the end clamps and roll up the belts and away we go. I’ll have a second bench at the other location and will mount the clamps there.
