CNC-2116 - Up and running, sort of (2015-03-21)
Yvan256:
Here's the new Y-axis assembly for the belt drive.
As I mentioned before, the two panels are adjustable so that the bronze bushings align perfectly with the smooth rods.
The first photo shows the assembly sliding "closed", the second one shows the sliding "opened" and the third one shows the bottom with the belt anchor and the slotted holes that allow the alignment of the two sides.
Yvan256:
The Y-axis assembly is finally in place and it's sliding very smoothly. ;D
I'm searching for something to use as a temporary idler pulley, installing the belt and then testing the whole thing with TurboCNC and the driver board. If all goes well, I should have a video online "soon".

Looks like your adjustable "Y" panels are going to make aligning them with the rods nice and simple.

Still looking for a suitable "idler pulley" option with the parts I have right here.
Yvan256:
Here's the underside of the machine, to see details of the temporary belt installation.
And the video of the first movements is .
