Tim sayeth: Nick, a fellow MiRUG member, has had a Darwin running since forever, and he's had lots of trouble with his X axis / extruder carriage. We've put a fair amount of work into adapting the nicest (IMHO) Mendel X axis to Darwin.

Suggested Improvements

- The holes for x-axis bolts on the x-end-idler can not be reamed out easily. The entry is on an overhang and there is too much mess for the drill bit to self-center properly. These holes need to extend clear through to the opposite side so that the holes can be reamed in the opposite direction.
