HOW TO GET HELP

your questions. This is our primary medium to help VORON Users and we have a great community that
can help you out if you get stuck.

THIS IS JUST A REFERENCE

This manual is designed to be a simple reference manual. Building a Voron can be a complex endeavour

and for that reason we recommend downloading the CAD files off our Github repository if there are
sections you need clarification on. It can be sometimes be easier to follow along when you have the

whole assembly in front of you.
