Pick the one that fits your needs.</li><li>The slider is printed in TPU. The alternative diamond-shaped slider provides less friction, but prevents the sticky feeling, when it starts moving.</li></ul><h3><strong>Assembly:</strong></h3><ol><li>Remove both cams, the spacers and the extension spring. → <a href="https://youtu.be/PZ6_0N7uRKc">Virpil's video on Youtube</a>.</li><li>Set the spring apart for reassembly.</li><li>Assemble the 3D-printed parts and the spring.</li><li>Install the assembly inside the base in place of the cams.</li></ol><h3><strong>Known Issues and Planned Solutions:</strong></h3><ul><li>The rubber shroud of the base acts like a spring.
