The original CoreXY platform was a reimagined belt pattern for lightweight XY gantries at higher speeds than their typical cartesian cousins. By mounting both motors on the frame in an "Etch-a-Sketch"-like fashion, the design reduces the moving mass by one motor while still enabling translation in an XY plane.

Over the years, the CoreXY has seen many, many belt pattern tweaks, most of which offer minor conveniences, some of which even have their own names, like the Fabtotum-style belt pattern.

I'd like to add one more CoreXY variant to the mix, which I'm calling the 'Flush-Form CoreXY'.

This stylize pattern actually creates a few conveniences.
