Leadscrew Protector

This quick and easy to print part can be mounted on the right side z-axis stepper motor to protect the leadscrew. The fan that cools the filament once is its layed down, can blow small pieces of filament to the right side leadscrew and end-stop, which might make them malfunction over time. Mirror this part in your slicer to make fit it the other stepper motor.

I found that the bolts that are used to secure the stepper motor are just a bit too short (M3 x 5mm), thus I used some M3 x 8mm to get this guard to fit.
