Improvement of the initial variable plate cell. Now using a GT2 belt to move the plates instead of the previous complex nylon thread system.
Beware! You may learn something...
You will need:
closed loop rubber GT2 timing belt 180-2GT-6.
Stainless steel 4x M3x15 mm screws
Stainless steel 8x M3x10 mm screws
M5 threaded rod for the drive shaft
2 x Stainless steel plate for electrodes (the size you want. Could be in 304 material but not necessary)
Something to connect the plates. (I usually use stainless steel metal cable ties)

Summary
Variable plate cell that can be used with the 8XA experiment. Fit easily in 85 mm diameter jar.
Post-Printing
It is designed for 60 mm plate width. ( I use 60 x 120 mm 304L plates)
You will need:
4 smooth rods 3 mm diameter.
1 x M5 threaded rod (lenght depends of your plate size)
6 x - M5 nuts
4 x - M3 x 15 mm screws + Washers
2 x Small screws to block the fishinf line in place.
Some fishing line (fluorocarbon works well)
Use a 3.1 or 3.2mm drill bit to have an effective guide with the 3mm smooth rods (Too much play and it will not work properly)
