@dc42 - Yep I will be able to modify that part to have a straight slot for the right side of the bed rib, I'll get onto it later. I have removed the belt twist on my Y axis , the belt tension was easily applied and I've done a few prints now with no discernible difference in print quality, i'll still modify the right side part however just to give that as an alternative.

I've been doing a bit of parallel development, I was producing a two screw Y belt adjuster and then saw Ians reference to an hinged adjuster for the Y axis. So modified my design as can be seen in the attachment. Seems to work quite well.

@dc42 - Finally got around to fixing the Y-Belt clamps so you can retain the twist in the belt if required.

I have attached a copy of all the bits I have made to modify the Y beltQuote
Mr.Burns
@johneato: Do you have any stl-files for me/us? I would like to try your version of the belt tensioner, if its ok for you. It would be very much appreciated. ;-)
Thanx, Sven

Just printed your y-belt-clamp version 7 but I think my printer is not quite good enough to print accurately. Although the 2 parts look good and are square in all directions the gap between the sections where the belt should grip the groves is so small that I can not get the belt inserted. I assume that they printed OK on your printer so I must have something wrong.
Have you any ideas what I could do to improve the quality of prints.

Thank you for your help
