I kept doubting until the last minute while designing the printer but in the end I caved and went for the CoreXY arrangement on the XY axis belts.
It was easier to implement than I thought and harder to understand than I anticipated. I had to even make a prototype to wrap my head around the concept and still I'm not entirely sure about how to adjust for squareness but I'll get there eventually I'm sure.
I went all in with the motors because I hope to be able to print thinner layers really fast with this one but time will tell.
