How to enable Dual Y-carriage in Marlin

Here's a video on how to enable a dual y-carriage in Marlin. Sorry for the shoddy video quality. I couldn't quite get my capture software to work correctly. Comment, like and subscribe if you enjoyed the video.

Any way to set an endstop for the cloned axis. I'm on the mini Rambo so I really want to utilize the E0 for dual y and use an endstop to home it. Thanks

How does the reprap discount screen look? Does it have a Y2? How do I move the Y2 or X2 axis only. My LCD screen only shows extruder /extruder 1/extruder 2. It also has a toggle that says "Select E1" or "Select E2"

well i got this: #error "Y_DUAL_STEPPER_DRIVERS is no longer needed and should be removed." plz help

im trying to do the same thing but with a 2nd x motor and a 2nd z motor. do you know if there are any limitations on having 2nd motors on multiple axis at the same time?

[@vladmirputin7139]

It's most likely just going to make the axis heavier and you will have more current running through your motors. That's about it.

what about x carriage? like two separate extruders on two different carriages i was looking around and saw that the new marlin firmware was something called dual x and a saw a post online that if you have a board that can support multiple extruders then dual x can support a max of 5 extruders just one catch though you have to have one extruder by itself and the other 4 on the second carriage but my goal is to have just 3 one by itself to do either support or flexible while the other two can be free to do something else the other two would be e3d Chimera and the single exdtruder will be something like bondtech i know i probably could go with something like the e3d Kraken and just have one x carriage with 4 extruders but i like the look two carriage sorry for the long comment any help is much appreciated :)

I'm trying to do the same using ramp1.4 board. but it's not working while testing the circuit, should we connect the extruder for it to work?

[@vinu1013]

the stepper motor for y2 which is connected to the slot of extruder 2 is not working...please help
