Where are the M3's being used?

Sorry, not clear to me. Where are you using the M3's? And any reason to not use a nut?

I made one of these builds with some mods, and you are right the instructions are not really clear. I made a branch of this project. Maybe that helps a bit. But the M3's are being used for things like the GPU risers, see attached image.

PS. I'm also working on a clamp+lock system, so you need less screws.

In the attached picture, you see two parts. The Red part, just clicks in the X-frame and can be removed by pushing the pin in, so you can take it out straight, to prevent it from sliding in the X rail, you use the yellow part, to lock it in place. Prototype works fine. At A, you see the yellow lock that attaches to the red clip and B will be hold in place by the rail. It unlock by sliding out the yellow lock.

I'm thinking about making different locks (yellow parts), so you can have a yellow block with for example the motherboard spacers. or fan brackets. I have also created some lock in feet to print for this system. Go check my fork.

Thats great, thanks mate. I like your approach with the clamping system!
