Idler Losses - Toolhead Development
Ever since we talked about this with ProtaDec here, I've been on a hunt for the perfect off-the-shelf U-groove bearing with a 3mm ID so that we can get rid of one SLM part…

SLM MGN12H XY joints - Gantry
Based on yesterday's poll and previous questions about 12H support on the Y-axis I started designing the MGN12H XY joints to order with my next toolhead parts. Other than the fillets and some other smaller details it's pretty much ready to go…

X-Endstop Support - Gantry Development
The X-endstop is also gantry-mounted, so it's crucial to force the Y homing first. I want to keep this a single-piece design, similar to the Y-endstop.
