The GT2 belts might perform better, but the T2.5 on the Huxley is "good enough" from my experience.

I agree that the printer still prints quite well, however I've been observing a couple key problems.
For one, the X axis is on it's second printed pulley ever since the stock one began slipping on the stepper motor shaft. With the new one, I've been noticing poor engagement with a couple of the teeth as well.
At the very least it would be nice to find some 14-tooth metal pulleys for this T2.5 x 5mm belt and the 5mm steppers. Anyone know of any good distributors?
