Ibsaw where you had been talkimg on opebuilds, that looks awesome and pretty much complete!
I was thinking about a c or tripple c bot... But damn that looks awesome... It looks like itll be a nightmare to level the carriage though... Im probably wrong but it looks like it...
right now its running on two Z steppers, one for the left screws and one for the right screws.
Ideally its running off one geared stepper, But i havent found a looped belt that is long enough yet
if anyone knows where to get a 1900-2000mm closed loop belt for gt2 6mm wide, please let me know
Robotdigg only carries up to 1500mm

This guy sews belts together. Not sure if you want to try this method... but it is an idea :)
Just thought of another solution. Perhaps just use two smaller continuous loop belts with a "double" gear in between that both belts mount on to. This does increase cost and part count put allows you to "daisy chain" as many belts as needed without requiring exotic lengths.
Like this one:

i considered this option. but it would introduce a height difference between the belts. which is a problem.
