Replicator2 - implementing WingCommanders Mk8 upgrade

Notes:
I'm using Makerware set to high res with the default skeinforge settings.

- Bearing was tight in part, didn't rotate.  I had to ream out the slot with a drill bit.
- Pin was too large in both diameters.  Also too tall.  I created a smaller one in Solidworks with diameters of 5.5 and 7.6.  Length 11 mm.
- Recessed circle in base was too small and needed to be trimmed
- Base curled during printing and kept the whole thing from functioning correctly.

I spent a whole day screwing around with this and with my tail between my legs I'm going to simply order one from Taylor.
