fix Non-Square frame post build
I recently got my VCore to a stage where I can start printing and it seems like the frame is not entirely square... i built it on a perfectly flat surface and im fairly certain it was square during building. I since transported it to my home and once I tried my first calibration cube it came out slightly like a paralellogram in the xy axis. I suspekt its due to the gantry extrusions not being perfectly square.
I dont understand how i can fix it as there is no room to play with the extrusions i think? Only one corner isnt square. See photo.

The parallellogram cube
Have you checked the squareness of the X gantry to the Y axis? When I started playing around with belt tensions, my x gantry got pulled all out of whack and I has a similar effect

I checked now after your comment ant it is slightly off as well. Ill have to look into getting that squared first then and see if that helps. I did some tensioning on the belts and i think one belt was tightened more than the other. I suppose that could be the problem? I just assumed it would be ok as the other belt got tighter as well when i tightened the first.
