+# Assembly Instructions
+The Assembly is done in Layers where you build up the frame and mount all parts in the same time. 
+
+This is done because drop in t-nuts are not recommended.
+
+So before you start be sure to have all parts printed and all needed screws, rails, bearings, ... sourced as required. 
+
+> It is highly recommended that you use the CAD files the whole time.
+> 
+> You will find every single part in it and can check how is everything assembled.
+
+## 1. Prepare printed parts
+- Prepare all printed parts so that they are fully assembled and can be mounted to the frame afterwards
+- Add all bearings, screws, shafts, nuts and pulley
+- As there are so maney different configs you have to check and use the CAD files to assemble everything 
+
+### Used Parts:
+- All parts flaged with MAKE
+- Screws, bearings, idler, pulley, nuts
+
+## 2. Build Frame
+- Now we start bulding the main frame
+- We will start from the bottom and build the first square
+- Be sure to attach the L-joints in the extrusion
+  - 2 in the X-Axis
+  - 1 per side in the Y-Axis
+
+### Used Parts:
+- Corner Brackets
+- 3030 M6 T-Nut
+- M6x12 Screws
+- L-Joints
+- Extrusion
+

+
+## 3. Add Z-Parts
+- Screw the Z-Rails onto the extrusion
+- Screw motor mounts to the extrusion
+- Drop in both Z front extrusions
+- Drop in the Z back "T" shaped
+- Be sure to drop in the T-Nuts for ballscrew top mounts
+  - 2x M5 T-Nut - X-Axis - facing inside of the printer
+
+### Used Parts:
+- Corner Brackets
+- M6 T-Nut
+- M6x12 Screws
+- MGN12 Rails
+- 3030 M3 T-Nut
+- 3030 M5 T-Nut
+- Z Motor mounts
+
+![](/images/assembly/zaxis.png)
+
+## 4. Add Y-Layer
+- Screw linear rails an extrusion
+- Slide in both extrusions 
+- The L-Joints are below the Rails - screw the L-Joint trough the wholes from the rail
+- Be sure to drop in the T-Nuts for Y motor mounts and ballscrew top mounts
+  - 2x M5 T-Nut both Y-Axis facing inside of the printer
+  - 1x M6 T-Nut both Y-Axis facing inside of the printer
+  - 2x M6 T-Nut both Y-Axis facing outside of the printer
+- Slide in Y Motors and Idlers from the top
+
+### Used Parts:
+- M6 T-Nut
+- 3030 M5 T-Nut
+- M6x14 Screw
+- MGN12 Rails with 
+- L-Joints
+- Y Motors and Idlers
+- M6x12 Screws
+

+
+## 5. Finish Frame
+- Now finish the base frame with the last square on the top
+
+### Userd Parts:
+- Corner Brackets
+- 3030 M6 T-Nut
+- M6x12 Screws
+- L-Joints
+- Extrusion
+
+![](/images/assembly/whole_frame.png)
+
+## 6. Add Ballscrews and Printbed
+- Add the ballscrews with wobble rings and mount them with the top idlers
+- Atach the bed square to the ballscrews
+
+### Used Parts
+- M3x10 Screw
+- M5x12 Screw
+- Z Top Idlers
+- Ballscrews
+- Wobble Rings
+- Bed Square with Alu plate
+
+## 7. Assemble X-Gantry and Mount
+- Check the video made by MirageC on how to assemble the CFx X-Gantry

+
+### Used Parts:
+- M3x10 Screw
+- Extrusion / Carbon Fibre Tube
+- Linear Rail
+- Printed Parts
+- Belt
+
+## 8. Add Electronics and Frame
+- Add all parts nedeed for the electronics compartment
+- Finish the electronics frame and mount it
+
+### Used Parts:
+- DIN Rails
+- 3030 M6 T-Nut
+- M6x12 Screws
