Rostock Max V3 Kit Documentation

Idea: shouldn’t there be some sort of sticky thread in this forum or possibly in the Rostock Max Official Documents Forum also that links to the Rostock Max V3 documentation? Guess because I had seen the V2 & older document links in the forums I started looking here, but remembered something about the Dozuki docs (which I’ve used before building a Printrbot & they mentioned Dozuki when I picked the kit up).

What I’m thinking about for a sticky that starts something like this:
Main documentation: http://seemecnc.dozuki.com/c/Rostock_Max_v3
If you want to print out a version, use the “Formats: PDF | XML | Embed” links above the first step image. But the online version reads well in most tablets and will always get you the latest version with updates since you printed it.

There are also detailed build threads in a separate forum, you can find here:
http://forum.seemecnc.com/viewforum.php?f=42
mhackney has a very detailed thread in this forum, but there are others (dmpalmer’s look useful too).

I remember reading/hearing about some videos, but can’t find them. geneb seem to do a ton of things helping with everything and everyone but if he did videos I can’t find them right now. Is there other links that should be added? Since we’re not starting the build until tomorrow, should be wiser (& perhaps more scarred?) shortly.

There are a number of videos linked in the dozuki documentation. Sometimes it's obvious because the picture is also the embedded version of the video. Other times they're only linked in the text, and it's up to you to notice that the very brief instruction is also a video link. Probably wouldn't be a bad idea to go through and make it more obvious there's a link there. (e.g. Replace "Insert whatchamacallit" with "Video: Insert whatchamacallit")

But yes, it would make sense to have a sticky here with the important links. Even if it's only a link to the documentation page on the seeme site.
