First time building a Voron design, not my first build though.
2.4 uses a quad drive belt leveling system.
I want to build a multi-head system, and have a BTT M8P.
The current setup would only allow me to have two print heads when I could possibly have 4.
I was wondering if it would work with a two drive system instead.
Have the belts run in an inverted U config, with the gantry attached on the inside of the belt on the front, and outside of the belt on the back.
That way the gantry moves in the same direction.. of course.
I understand that front to back leveling would be a manual affair, but would it stay? And is there a Dual gantry leveling flag in Klipper that would work for left/right leveling?
I don't know how much belts would stretch or need to be re-tensioned, and I'm not sure how easily 2 nema 17 motors would actually hold the weight of the gantry.
I am still getting the parts together, so I thought I would put it out to the hive mind.
Thoughts?
