The Ormerod 2 Y axis has a tendency to twist making the bed difficult to level. I made the base more rigid.
Update: Now added adjustable end plate version 2 which is slightly shorter and doesn't bind on the extrusion.
A small brass shim has also been added beneath the idler screw as over time the screw sinks into the plastic and can make the belt run out of true.
Materials
Aluminium angle 200 x 40 x1.5 2 lengths at 210
BR extrusion 20 x 40 x 350 with 6mm slot
M4 T nuts and bolts
