## Intro
The purpose of this work instruction is to explain the assembly process for the LumenPnP v3.1.0 Left-Side Y-Gantry (`y-gantry-left`).

## Preparing back-leg
- Remove any stringing from the 3D print with a heat gun
- Insert an `m5-hex-nut` into the bottom of the `back-leg` 3D print
- Finger strength *should* be sufficient to install this fastener into position
!!!glue "Glue if needed"
Add a drop of loctite to the region if the fastener fit is looser than normal and seems at risk of falling out in transit

## Preparing y-gantry stepper motor
- Gather the following parts and tools
- nema17-stepper-motor
- GT2-timing-pulley
- y-timing-pulley-spacer-jig
- Torque driver w/2mm hex driver, set to `0.7 N/M` *(not shown)*
