Symmetrical BFI Housing for VT has the V2.4 housing

[orangetruth]

BFI-VT_Housing_Symmetrical_x2.stl has an M5 and an M3 hole on each side like the V2.4 housing, but the VT housing should have four M5 holes.

Actually the entire VT housing is the 2.4 housing - it won't fit M5x40s. The step file doesn't have the correct VT components either. I suggest removing the trident version completely for now so others don't run into the same issues I have when trying to use this mod.

any follow up on this?

Sounds like @tetsu97 needs to make some updates

While this is 100% correct. I don't really see it as a problem?

Just use replace the T nuts with m3 and use some m3x8 screws.
Most voron kits come with an excess of both.

@Person1873 I updated the title since that was probably causing some confusion. BFI-VT_Housing_Symmetrical_x2.stl is using the v2.4 housing. It's a bigger issue than just the wrong screw holes. It's the wrong part.

I've just reviewed the files & this is incorrect.
The VT housing does not include a pass through for the 2.4 Z belts.

I'm running the most up to date m3 variant of these parts without issue.

@Person1873 Sorry if I wasn't clear enough. Here are some pictures to clarify:

A V2.4 housing with the z belt hole filled in does not make it a VT housing. The symmetrical VT housing only fits M5x30s, not M5x40s per the VT BFI BOM.

The VT housing also doesn't have the belt pattern.

Hopefully these pictures make it clear that the symmetrical VT housing was based off the standard V2.4 housing, not the standard VT housing.
