 I'll be adding more files for the rest of the printer parts as I go.

9/23/22: Added the rest of the files for the Y carriage. It is  all done.

Half bear upgrade for the Prusa i3 mk2 mk2s frame. I bought the frame and the carriage, so this is a build from scratch using remixes of the half bear printed parts. It doesn't require drilling into the frame, and it squares up nicely when bolted together. I used the same dimensions as the half bear, made the drill holes accordingly for bolting the 2040 extrusion together.

I'm not trying to build an original prusa mk2. Just customizing it as I go.

Note:  I had a tilting  frame from the original screws mounts. I removed the 4  m3 screws at the bottom of the frame and just had the frame sitting on the 2040 extrusions before tightening the 2 bolts holding  the corner bracket to the frame. This fixed the  tilt issue, screwing the corner bracket down also correct the tilt.
