Fillets on some of the external faces to get rid of the sharp edges and smoothed out the internal sharp edge the slider would occasionally hit. This should give a smoother motion.InstructionsPrint one base, one arm, and two shuttles. I recommend using multiply to make the shuttles as it does a better job printing the narrow rods.You may need to file any rough spots off the tracks or off the shuttles.Assemble as y
