Worn belts on VC 3.1 300mm
I've not got too many hours on my VC3 but both my belts are showing wear on one edge. I'm guessing its a pulley out of alignment, but on both belts?

or too tight belts
@TheTik The resonant frequency of the belts is around 80hz, would that indicate they are too tight?
they need to be juuust tight enough to not skip teeth.
That amount of wear is absolutely nuts, I've never seen pictures with that much rubber dust in my time in this discord
Unfortunately I've seen it before from the belts wondering and rubbing. Usually due to something not being aligned correctly
@blacksmithforlife 🇺🇸 I’ll have to look at that once I replace the belts, I can understand one belt wearing due to misalignment, but both? If that’s the case I need to look carefully at my build. Thanks.
