Those filament wipes are quite innovative and switching from bulldog clips to non sprung ones is a great change, I have 2 Ender 5 Plus machines and each aluminium plate is high in the middle so the tension from the bulldog clips pull the corners off level, I have bought some clips that have a screw to fasten the bed which doesent have to be tight as it only moves in the Z direction and that is a much better soloution so I can see the benefit on this Idex where the leveling needs to be as good as you can get it. I like those ribbon cables, much tidier, I wish the manufacturers could get their heads together and come up with a standard for a ribbon interface for the boards, this would make upgrading the boards a cinch and they might sell a lot more boards as a result. I enjoyed the video, looking forward to the other 3!
Nice review, linear rods should not be made out of stainless steel, it's too soft. 30:20 You can add a tensioning spring to the belt, or add a small 3D printed part that "zigzags" the belt. 42:10 Aren't you turning the wrong knobs? The one on the right is for the bottom belt
Got problem with printer when I’ve built printer and start to do a test it goes to print bed and doesn’t stop it makes an awful grinding noise on print bed and I have to turn it off. Can anyone help me please

Do you know the Sovol S04?
How do they compare? What are the differences?

Did you find out what happened? I have the same problem.
It's a zip tie under the plate on the belt. Gotta snip it
