- Fix this: The linear bearings of the X carriage must be glued in place (use epoxy or similar) since vibrations produced by the spindle motor move the bearings out of place.  
 | 
			
		||||
- Reinforce left&right frames  
 | 
			
		||||
- Reinforce screw holders in the Z axis parts  
 | 
			
		||||
- Add Endstop holder files (same of Prusa/Mendel)  
 | 
			
		||||
- Create holder for a vacuum cleaner  
 | 
			
		||||
- Create assembly instructions  
 | 
			
		||||
There are plenty of work fronts open, as many task are pending:
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
* Tougher parts (great ongoing work!):
 | 
			
		||||
 * Stronger holders for the linear bearings (vibration makes them slide away)
 | 
			
		||||
 * Reinforce screw holders
 | 
			
		||||
* Attachment for a vacuum cleaner
 | 
			
		||||
* Better scalability (particularly for the Y axis)
 | 
			
		||||
* Better spindle motor design:
 | 
			
		||||
 * Brushless motor for the spindle
 | 
			
		||||
 * Spindle speed control
 | 
			
		||||
* Integrated endstop holders

- v0.9.7 has an improved Z carriage: uses much less plastic, it holds the spindle tightly and leaves more metal surface exposed for better cooling.  
 | 
			
		||||
- v0.9.6b has a robust Y axis motor stand (improvement suggested and tested by **Yopero**), and the Z carriage now shows the name of the machine (how cool is that? :P)
