Shorter mounting screws required for specified stepper motors #28

Hello, I recently built a midTbot and it's working great. However, I found that with the steppers from StepperOnLine specified in the BOM, the M3 x 8mm button head screws were a millimeter or so too long for the threaded holes in the motors' faceplate. This leaves play between the carriage block, PCB, and motors.

I replaced these with M3 x 6mm button head screws, and this fixed the issue. Maybe this could be updated in the mechanical BOM?

Thanks!
