X/Y axis not even
Hi All,
Just getting some confirmation that I'm on the right track
My thoughts are my frame isnt square and that's the cause but is there anything else that can cause it to be uneven?

VC3 Initial belt tension preload
In this video Is shown how I assemble the belts and how I pre-load them with some tension.
After this I use the belt tension graphics to tighten them with (almost) equal tension. This will also be shown in a video, keep connected ;)
Hope this helps, enjoy.
I had this same issue. What I did was loosen both belts until they both had a little slack. Then tight then upper belt only until you get the X gantry squared. Then tension both belts from there. This image shows how tensioning the belts adjusts the gantry.
Thank you all, both comments were a great help ❤️
