> New Z motor mount and Z top parts that spread the Z rods and motors by 6mm on each side (parts in gold above). This gives 12mm more X axis travel with the stock smooth rods. I also triangulated the Z top part for a little more strength.

moves the Z motor and smooth rods out 6mm each side, and uses the same stock smooth rods for 12mm of extra X axis travel. Also triangulates the Z-top parts for a little more strength.

Z bearings are still inside the frame.
