Right now in order to tighten the belt these steps has be be followed:
a) the motor bolts have to be loose and the motor at the lowest position
b) the belt secured at the ends
c)the motor pulled up
d) while keeping the motor up, tighten the motor bolts.
But the motor bolts need two hands , one for the nut and one on the head with an allen key.

I propose to redesign the tightening process by making an adapter at the rail ends which will hold the belts tight, and then with a bolt along the long axis (direction of the belt)change the distance of the grabing location. Its one extra item to be printed but worth the removal of the hassle to tighten the belt
