About this model
Go big or go home. That's the Taurus spirit: strength with purpose, unabashed overkill, practical innovations, a dash of style. I didn't want to do another retread of the basic prusa design, so I gave it the Taurus treatment. But of course it is still an XZ machine so limited choices. Here's what I did: * widened bearing stance -> resist flex, hopefully push resonant frequencies outside print bandwidth * added backlash adjusters for Z lead screw * perfectly flat belt drive path (except stock version) * Tool-free belt tensioning * tension does not affect drive geometry * super beefy fixed (not floating) idler pulley * reoriented print -> see note below * motor shaft end bearing support (optional) * full 4 point motor connection * bearing screw clamps for easier assembly * X rod fine tuning …
