Describe the bug
The 470mm C-Beam has 2 sides, which are different:

  • One side has 2 threaded holes
  • The other side has 4 threaded holes

The side with 2 threaded holes has to be used for the Y-Axis Motor Mount.
The side with 4 threaded holes has to be used for the Y-Axis Bearing Block.

Document Name / Location
https://millenniummachines.github.io/docs/milo/manual/chapters/40_y_axis_assembly/#y-axis-motor-mount-and-bearing-block

Required Resolution
Please specify that the orientation of the C-Beam is important:

The side with 2 threaded holes has to be used for the Y-Axis Motor Mount.
The side with 4 threaded holes has to be used for the Y-Axis Bearing Block.

Additional context
If mounted in wrong orientation, the Y-Axis Bearing Block can't be mounted. The whole thing has to be unassembled and corrected or the two holes have to be threaded manually.

We should potentially call this out as a note section, as this is specific to the LDO kit. With self-sourcing (which is what the build manual is targeting by default), you would either be buying the C-beams fully tapped, or completely untapped.
