How many files of the parts for the i3v are completed

Who here has customized their printer?

If you haven't seen it, my i3v build thread notes a number of tweaks that I made as I went, including elimination of the zip ties on the endstop switches. I kept the wood pieces wood, though.

FOLLOWUP COMMENT: My number one gripe about the components of the i3v is the Z endstop (to be clear, this is on the i3v and not the i3 that many here have). You can't reposition the Z endstop with the accuracy needed to adjust bed clearance at the home corner, especially since the Z endstop bracket mounts to the rail with a single bolt, and any rotation of the bracket when it is tightened will significantly affect the switch action. Perhaps a redesigned X idler plate and Z endstop bracket could have an adjustable screw that points downwards on the right side of the X idler, with the screw engaging with the Z endstop switch remounted in a fixed position on the vertical rail so it is located under the screw. Something like that would be a design improvement.
