Does the x-gantry belt angle bother anyone else? Constantly variable belt tension. CVBT. Fixed.

Theoretically, with a 3mm belt vertical offset, printing on the left of the bed vs middle only makes 0.0023% difference in the movement per E-step. With a 5mm belt offset, this is still only 0.0068%. If you bought a particularly poorly designed linear rail kit like me, with a belt offset of 7mm, there is 0.013% difference - still tiny, but the belt angle is particularly ugly.

Should work with some x-gantry linear rail mods (but not with the Gulf-Coast Robotics one I hear).

Tested on the Ender S1 Pro and should work with the S1 and other printers with the same extruder carriage. Scale the model in the Z direction only to suit your carriage position.

Sorry this version won't work with V wheels but should be easy for someone to design.

It is a little difficult to install. You will have to remove the extruder carriage and the belts to get this in there.

I've only posted this because people asked about it, not because you need it.
