The CraftBot is an excellent piece of hardware. One of the few weak points in the design is the stiff yet flimsy little nylon nut used to hold the build plate in place. I lost a large print once when the vibrations made the nuts come loose, and the plate actually fell out of the machine during the print.
This modification consists of a larger knob printed in flex material, with the old nut inside. It holds the plate with a firmer grip.
