Darwin Design Fault Log

Hi, if there's any design faults you've discovered on the way to building your Darwin, please log them here...

	Victim	Problem
	Adrian	Can't reach lower belt clamp bolts on the X carriage, unless with a rounded hex key
	Adrian	X Belt clamp label wrong above "X axis assembly" in figure
	Adrian	Notch the hypotenuse of the bed corner plates so it jigs up better
	Adrian	20mm caps on tensioner corners? (More travel)
	Chris	Moulds for X & Y pulleys too small, I suggest 14mm for 16 teeth
	Chris	Idler pulleys too big, should match drive pulleys
	Chris	X-motor bracket is too low to meet the Y belt
	Chris	Y & Y flags should enter opto from the side
	Chris	Z flag should have a flat top
	Chris	Y belt clamp has a pitch of 13mm but the holes in the x-carriage are 12mm
	Chris	The slot in the opto-brackets is slighly too small for the five pin opto

Thanks!
