Ladies, Fellas, Those that know better: you ever want a bit more stiffness?

just enough clearance for a glass bed and for a covered control/screen pcb.

will interfere with zstop, so unless you're using BL Touch you'll need to readjust the file in openSCAD or only use a brace on the right side.

designed for use with the following t-nut design https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2881180

includes modified openSCAD file used to output this STL

each brace will need:

8x m4 nut

8x m4 t-nut print (if you just have real m4 tnuts laying around i'd just use those instead)

8x m4x10mm screws

(holy cow i need to dust the undercarriage a bit)
