Do tell. You do know I 3D printed an entire i3 printer and I did it all right here, right? Well here is that: https://3dprintboard.com/showthread....ted-3D-Printer
And while I have 2 other i3 style printers and one that I converted to 2 z motors I have never once had this 'out of sync' issue you claim. Honestly you sound like a Neanderthal making ape noises. lol @ you. Nobody wires 2 stepper motors together unless they are already using car parts and don't mind setting house fires. The rest of us use 1 stepper driver per stepper motor and we tee off of the input signal to feed the second driver. A good example of this can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vIChqkEAuto&t= Now go pound some sand. Or sit down and give your mind a rest or w/e.
