yopero ed633d8432 New Y rod idler and logo
New idler based on the one used in the Mendel90 although there are
improvements such as the nut trap.
I added a new library called MCAD to /libs folder basically it is nuts,
bolts gears and screws.

The logo has been added as a .dxf file created in Inkscape.
I have added another library "logo"  to  /libs folder it contains the
dxf file.

STL files with and without logo added to /Hardware/Y_axis/stl/

OpenSCAD MCAD Library
=====================

This library contains components commonly used in designing and moching up mechanical designs. It is currently unfinished and still undergoing considerable API changes however many things are already working.

This library is licensed under the LGPL 2.1
See http://creativecommons.org/licenses/LGPL/2.1/ or the included file, lgpl-2.1.txt.

Currently Provided Tools:

* involute_gears.scad (http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3575): 
    - gear()
    - bevel_gear()
    - bevel_gear_pair()

* gears.scad (Old version):
    - gear(number_of_teeth, circular_pitch OR diametrial_pitch, pressure_angle OPTIONAL, clearance OPTIONAL)

* motors.scad:
    - stepper_motor_mount(nema_standard, slide_distance OPTIONAL, mochup OPTIONAL)

Other tools (alpha quality):
* nuts_and_bolts.scad: for creating metric and imperial bolt/nut holes
* bearing.scad: standard/custom bearings
* screw.cad: screws and augers
* materials.scad: color definitions for different materials

Utils:
* math.scad: general math functions
* constants.scad: mathematical constants
* curves.scad: mathematical functions defining curves
* units.scad: easy metric units
* utilities: geometric funtions and misc. useful stuff

You are welcome to fork this project in github and request pulls. I will try to accomodate the community as much as possible in this.
