Clicking on the x-axis

Hello! Just finished building the kit a couple of days ago (first 3D printer!) ... I was extremely paranoid I'd be turning it on to smoke and ashes ... but it worked fine! After sorting out an x-axis issue (the initial calibration complained about the x-axis length), it seems to be printing absolutely beautifully.

However, I'm now getting this 'clicking' on the x-axis. Is this simply because it's too tight? I tried bringing the little gear thing outwards a bit so that the belt wasn't rubbing against the side so much, but it's still clicking. I've read that it could be caused by the belt being too tight, but unsure how that makes sense.

RE: Clicking on the x-axis

I had the same problem with a printer that came assembled from Prusa. The clicking went away after a couple of weeks. It prints ok.
