Greetings!
Everyone has always been very helpful here.
Its been awhile. I need to build this 24x24" y axis. Think large size 3D printer for printing clay. See photo. My base is 3/4" Melamine, I have 2 20mm linear slides with 4 Bearing blocks, I will run a Small Nema 23 with 22 tooth Pulleys. I have on order HTD3M 15mm wide belt.
My rails don't have mounting holes.
The Bearing slides have 4 6mm mounting holes. I need to have springs, so I can Tram the bed.
So, I was going to run a homemade bearing idler on one side and the Nema 23 with 22 tooth pulley on the other.
I would appreciate any thought?
I have some separate parts I'm working on I will discuss in other posts.
Thanks!!!
Max

This is an ongoing project. There are several old threads on my build. This is Custom. the other parts are 2-meter Z and X axis. This is an add on to make it Cartesian for testing.
Just wanted some thoughts on a Y axis approach. I have a couple days until my belt is in, so I'm trying to tie everything together.
The actual clay extruder is already built Nema 23 with a 20:1 Worm reducer.
Thanks
