Around 9 years ago I modified my first 3D printer with an extra fan for the material (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:873875). After buying and building some other printers, the Ormerod was waiting as an "organ donar" for few years. Than I found a cheap clone of the IR Z-senor and was curious, if this would have been really better than the original one. So I started to repair broken parts and modified the holder of the hotend to mount the sensor. It worked much better - but also make visible that the hot end walks like a "bow" when passing the feeder. Instead of stopping, I had the idea of replacing the original rod with a MGN12 - again just to see, if the result becomes better - this was around 1.5 years ago....

Now it's finalized, it works and the printer can go back into retirement :-)

The two coolermounts from https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:873875 are modified to fit with the dimensions of the MGN rail.

The motor mount (original 473) has been modified for larger reflection zone of the sensor and holding the MGN12 instead of the original rod

Part 462 has been reworked to hold the MGN12 as well, but also modified to stabilize the arm, as a broke the little tongue at the end

The slider (546) and the mount (1079) for the original hotend have been reworked to fit on the MGN12 slider

A MGN12 rail (35 cm length) and a slider is needed - the original belt will fit.
Additionally 2 M3, 12 mm and 2 M3, 16 mm countersunk screws are needed.
