Springless Bearing Carriers
Hey, the springs are a right bastard to get here in the UK. I'm thinking it'll be quicker / easier to run off some sort of bearing carrier with a flex based spring off the back. It'll probably be best to redo the part B/C too, but for now I'm just wild-carding it.
I just wondered if anyone has already trod this path?
Here's my current insanity / versions, but the printer is busy so can't test them:

The US Amazon reseller called, XJSXSZ, has over 1000 of them in stock right now.

What I'd do if I were you was to ask around the Aliexpress sellers for this exact spring... I'm sure they have it. It's very easy to get here, and it's not made here, that's for sure... it's just a Chinese reseller, so they're getting them from somewhere.
