    Yep agreed but that's not always the case and some don't have knowledge to setup correctly from beginning and damage can be done before they learn.!! Plus there's the other added benefits using belts give like piece of mind a stall isn't going to turn gantry into a Twizzler.!! . . . Anyway it's bit Linux vs Mach thing we are obviously going to have to agrees to disagree.!

    Loosen bolts on gantry etc and pulleys then turn ball screws . . . . Simplizz.!! . . . Bit fiddly and time consuming at first but one time deal so no problem.
