Glowforge Split Gantry Wheel

My brother has a Glowforge laser and one of the gantry wheels split on him. Seems this was a bit of a more known issue that someone on the GF Forums created an STL to reprint a replacement one. I did so but the STL file did not accommodate the bearing. The original part is glued together with a bearing in the middle. I split that STL with Meshmixer, then used Tinkercard to simply hollow out the inner piece to accommodate the bearing. I just did it so this hasn't been tested yet but will be soon (and I'll update this entry). I just wanted to share this with everyone.

For some reason, the site doesn't like my stl. The pictures are of the previous failed part that was being replaced.
