Before you start Batch B04¶
Before you start · Batch B04 — XY joints + X carriage
Time: 8.6 h (1 plate) — PrusaSlicer 2.9.6 estimate.
Sessions: 1 plate start (~5 min hands-on, 8.6 h unattended) + ~15 min inspect and bin.
Prerequisites: Gate B passed (Step B00.7 — the printed bores and the insert bosses; the caliper and
insert rows run early, on what is already on the bench). B02 (accent [a]_endstop_pod_D2F_switch, cable bridge)
feeds the same assembly chapter and printed two batches ago. B03 is not a print prerequisite — the two
batches only meet at Ch 04/05.

Probe retainer bracket, conditional
only used with the Omron inductive probe. Costs 0.5 g — print
it, decide later. If the probe barrel measures 9 mm rather than 8 mm on arrival, print
probe_retainer_bracket_9mm.stl instead (verify on arrival).
Hardware: none.

against
x_frame_V2TR_MGN12_*on kit day, before any heat-set goes in. - Most commonly reprinted here:
xy_joint_*_lower_MGN12. x_frame_V2TR_MGN12_*are the R2/Clockwork-2 carriage halves — LDO Build Notes p.129-130 warn specifically about using the wrong X-carriage variant here.
