Future Work

Simplify Universal Axis from clamshell to monolithic for Motor and idlder side.
Retain carriage side, or fix it? Only compelling reason is taking the X axis off. But we could redesign the X so it can be independent of the Y. If we take off X with 2 bolts, service on X or Y allows for whole X and Whole Y to be taken off easily - the Y does not mix with X.
Put a 6 mm set screw hole into the bottom z axis holder so it doesn't slip when moving the printer. It holds against the stop of the clip.
Chamfer corners on endstop holders, they are sharp.

Too much cleanup on X-Y joints. Rework the production engineering so that printing can be by default more clean. Probably do a joint between one-piece motor and one-piece carriage.
- Is any of this due to print settings and/or nozzle size?
Get a shear for cutting PEI easily

Wiring - desing snap-in wire clips - snap in to frame, no tape needed.
- Banana Connectors perhaps?
- Mono 2.5/3.5/6.5mm audio jacks could be used too?

Develop FDM 3D Printer Print Profiles for various materials to make it even more plug and play (less, if any failed prints due to the best settings being pre-determined)
D3D Toolchanger and/or D3D Toolheads
