I was having a hell of a time tightening my z idlers on my Voron 2.4 and decided to go for Chaoticlab's tool free version but I didn't like how he used a square nut (not common or used anywhere else) or hex nut (also not used/common for a 2.4).  So I modified his design to leverage a t-slot nut in the tensioning wheel and just a regular m4 SHCS for the tensioning screw.  I also liked/used hartk1213's pin mod so wanted a version of the idlers that leverage that mod as well.

Tightening the belts is now relatively simple in that you hold an allen wrench on the m4 SHCS and tighten the tensioner wheel with your fingers (see picture as example).
