Contact us if you have suggestions or problems with the design, so we can keep a list of open issues in order to improve later revisions.

If you're interested in helping to improve the design or methods described here, feel free to explore the github repository and create new branches of the source files.

If your protocol for drive fabrication deviates from the one described here, please send us a brief description of your methods so we can expand the protocol with variants that better suit different applications of the drive.
