 # Beehive machine kit
 
+![](examples/linear_axis/img/axis.jpg)
+
 This project provides a series of modular parts that can be easily composed to make linear motion axes and machine components. The core of the project is based on:
 
 - Aluminum extrusions, or [3D printed alternative]()
 - Derlin wheel carriages
 - Grid of tap-in-plastic M5 holes with 10mm spacing
 
+The project is named after the grid of holes that can either be busy or free, much like cells in a beehive.
