Phases

8" Bed

Validate USA Titan Aero Volcano operation - get all settings correct
Validate China Titan Aero Volcano - for lower cost sourcing
Validate card reader + LCD - this is a great improvement on usability and testing upon startup
Validate double sided adhesion of 8" bed surface - makes sure that the surface never comes off and can stand high temperature printing
Validate Acrylic electronics mounting - for tight and transparent cable management and taking up of any slack. Can we laser cut with D3D laser cutter in future iterations.
Validate frame assembly from welded bar. Must be done in conjunction with self-mixing epoxy method. Could be during next workshop. Needs external frame for welding. Validation shows whether this would be a practical route for remote workshops - otherwise we would need to ship frames.
Validate Volcano cooling fan assembly + sensor mount

Validate insulated mounting of bed - important for higher temperature prints with 200C bed + polycarbonate
Validate bottom insulation of bed for better energy efficiency
