IMPROVEMENTS

The new assembly setup takes out multiple steps out of the assembly process. Instead of putting a part in, screwing in a plug, taking it out, and screwing on a nut; the three parts are aligned together, and screwed together in one continuous motion. This reduces the assembly to two steps, and reduces process time by 50%
