I am in the process of replicating the XYZ micro-manipulator by Diffraction Limited. This is a motorized motion platform that can achieve repeatable sub-micron precision. As of February this year, Diffraction Limited updated the ball joint design and manufacturing process which I will be using in this replication.
This replication will be interesting because documentation is spread out between Github, Youtube, an active discord server, and few guilds on StepWiseDocs.
The last item of the BOM should be arriving this week. I will be documenting the process in the replies below.
