Self-source
Start with the repo-local fabrication manifest for the CAD-derived part inventory, then cross-reference the BOM and assembly manual for procurement details, sourcing, and fabrication notes.
Fabrication manifest
The CAD-derived fabrication manifest can be checked locally:
python3 scripts/generate_fabrication_manifest.py --check
