This reduction is due to the triangles of the Prusa Mendel being fully printed. Since the build area of a Mendel is 200x200 mm, the frame pieces are friction-fit together, no tools or vitamins are necessary.
Since plastic is not as rigid as threaded rod, the z-motor mount has been integrated into the top vertices along wit
