## Next Improvements
The surface finish of 3d printed parts is generally good other than some ringing or ghosting that is visible. According to this blogpost(Insert link), this can be attributed to the slack from belts or wobbling idler pulleys. Users have countered these issues in several ways:

# Fabrication
1. Printing 3D Printed Parts
The printed parts are divided into 2 colours - grey and red and the material used was PETG. The parts were all sliced in Prusaslicer and ther slicerprofile is attached for download.
Print Parameters:
- Print resolution: 0.2
- Perimeters: 3
- Solid layers: 3
- Infill type: Gyroid
- Infill Percentage: 25%
- Nozzle Temperature: 235degC
- Bed Temperature: 85degC
- Enable Autocooling
- Fan between 0 and 70%
- Disable Fan for first 3 layers
2. Cutting profiles
The profiles can be cut with a flexcutter.
3. Cutting Enclosure Panels
The front, left, right and top enclosure panels are from acrylic and can be cut out using a laser cutter for clean edges and accurate dimensions. Alternatively, they can also be cut with hand powertools like a multicutter. The cuts are however not clean so will need more post-processing.
4. Preparing Wiring
- CNC milling
- laser cutting
- electronics production
- casting
- etc
# Build Instructions
## Fabrication
1. Printing 3D Printed Parts
2. Cutting profiles
3. Cutting Enclosure Panels
4. Preparing Wiring
The build instructions below are divided into two parts, namely pre-assembly and final assembly. In the pre-assembly some of the sub-assmeblies or parts are either prepared or assembled together to ease the final assembly. The numbering system below will be referred to within the build manual by appending each number after the previous number for eg. the LM12UU bearing installation is in step **1.4.1** and can be looked up in the list below as part of the Build Platform assembly > Z-Axis Bearing Holder > LM12UU Bearing.
