Try ERIKS where i got mine from. It is an expensive outlay but comparible to screws, I will try and update my build log soon. Don't buy the rubber belt a complete false a oconomy, Time gets less and less everyday, i have to finish putting my southbend back together to make room to finish it off (tiny garage)

AdCNC - Now that your machine has been running a while ... i appreciate its servos not steppers ... but any comments / after thoughts on belt size/pitch/width/type, gear size/material, ratios or the design you used to allow for tension adjust?

If you remember .. what were the specs of the belt + pulleys you used?

BIG THANK YOU!
