Mod. 3 Kersnapped

Assembling Mod. 3 was difficult as the exact length of the motor shaft and placement of the bearing lock nuts is crucial - and they're real swines to access. In the process, I snapped the flexure frame (see pointer).

Mod. 4 has that bit strengthened, and the bearing beam is removable to improve access to the nuts. Printing now.

In white behind the orange coupling you can just see the crossed wire Z endstop, currently held in place with a zip tie and hot glue. It'll do for now but will change that later.
