    So I just purchased my 2nd Robo and got it today. After unboxing I noticed the clip under the bed that attaches the belt to the bed in the front is broken. I have put a part request in,But was wondering if there is a version I can print while a wait for this part to be delivered. Thanks

    Mine broke today. I've had it a few months. Any guidance on where to get a new clip? Also any info on belt routing and tightening would be appreciated.

    Contact robo,they will send you a new clip. If you have another printer I recommend just printing another one. I printed mine at 100% infill and it's working great. For the belt I can try and grab a picture but I think it just wraps around. To connect the belt,there are teeth in the clip,put the belt in the clip and pull it snug,it's a bit of a chore to do,but pull it tight and put the screw in and tighten away.

    I opened a part request but also wanted to print this weekend. So I built a "fork" out of aluminum diamond plate to hold tension on the belt while I printed a couple of these...
