Hardware for Cyclone-PCB-Factory
===================
Version 2.0
--
Adressing all the issues from the original design, implementing improvements by yOPERO, Martin Zabojnik and others.
* More robust design with tougher parts:
* Better holders for the linear bearings (vibration makes them slide away)
* Reinforced nut/screw holders
* Attachment for a vacuum cleaner
* Better scalability (parameterized design)
* Using a [Dremel 200](http://www.dremel.com/en-us/tools/Pages/ToolDetail.aspx?pid=200+Series) as the spindle motor
* Integrated endstop holders
Work in progress. Pending tasks:
--
* Endstop integration for X, Y and Z
* PCB holder
* Fork Marlin firmware and add Cyclone parameters
* Better plastic-saving holes for the X frames
* Improve the nut holder in the X carriage
* Re-design the [Z carriage](INHERITED) after testing performance. Integrate vacuum cleaner attachment
* Re-design the [gears](INHERITED) with smoother edges
