X-axis clicking sound
This is not even an issue, but I was wondering if anyone is experiencing the same. When the X-axis moves, there is a ticking sound coming from the printhead. This also happens when I move the printhead manually. The tick occurs about every 5mm regularly in both directions, just on the x-axis. There is no debris or whatever in the area of the belts and the pulleys. The sound seems to originate from the printhead. Prusa support had no idea about potential causes. Any ideas what this could be?

RE: X-axis clicking sound
It seems to be normal and an effect of the balls actually rolling and the holes in the rail.
Have a read here. Off topic in that thread, but I don't want to re-write or copy it right now:
