Kinkajou Delta Design Observations

Two observations on the current design. First, the edges of the heat sink fins as delivered from the manufacturer are too sharp. As a safety concern, we will chamfer the edges of the heat sink fins in the production run.

Second, there seems to be a risk of a "guillotine effect" where the cord can get pinched between the handle and the upper inside edge of the ABS side panels. We will investigate this further--if necessary, we can also chamfer the edge of the ABS panels in the production run.
