This project implements a kinematic bed solution for the RatRig vCore2, it designed to be used with easy mod and EVA for XY motion.
This is a work in progress. Please contact me before you start assembling the project, either open an issue or find me at RatRig Community (unofficial) discord @EOliveira @EOliveira
- 3x mgn rail + carriage with
