More accurate BOM QTYs to avoid confusion #1

Open Packabilly opened 2 months ago

Packabilly commented 2 months ago

Hi, my shipment of parts came today; I'm really excited to build my rig. However when I began assembly, I noticed I had made some errors when ordering parts due to confusion caused by the BOM referencing the quantities listed in the Aliexpress links instead of the true total part quantities.

For example, the 'inner corner bracket' QTY is listed as '2', but that references the Ali link QTY of 5pcs, so the true total QTY would be 10. The same for the corner brackets and the M5 screws.

It's not a huge deal if you read and understand the BOM and review the CAD properly, but I think changing to total QTYs would make it easier for dummies like me to understand and self-source parts, as well as prevent future issues caused by broken links.

Thanks or the awesome project; I can't wait to get it up and running!
