The Goal here is to create a lightweight, minimal x carriage. the carriage will have a large central opening to facilitate various hot end designs, and provide enough room to insulate the hot end.
I find the default Sells carriage too bulky and confining. I also hate that the mounting points are above the rails, which means the whole carriage has to be disassembeled if you want to get to the extruder. It also has a lot of mass, and much of the structure is bellow the rails, putting it close to the hot end and risking warping from the heat plume.
