I use them as Handwheels

OK , don't want to use xbox controller?

That would never perform good.
You need to move too fast for good printing.

FDM printers (reprap, stratasys, etc) are slow. thats the nature of that type of machine.

x zero machines with decent steppers can easily outpace most of the available low cost fdm machines.

must be in your gcode, cause it doesnt look like it lost position or stalled.

What does speed of machine have to do with 3d printing? All you need is the extrusion head; which you can buy online and some plastic. Slap that on your xzero and POW! you got yourself a 3d printer.

Machine looks great, i see you like lots of color on machine. does the program repeat the wrong cut?

Here is some printer speeds i could find

[gio666]

You can also run belt and pulley set up and belt it up 2 to 1 and get super fast

[gio666]

Also changing stepper motors to high quality steppers and not china steppers also would make big difference in speed as far as stalling

Here is pictures of updated Z axis, one pieces front plate. Little more room for adjustment in ballscrews. More clearance now for prox switch
