Some of the parts of the MendelMax are not quite robust to handle the forces in the machine. the X-axis that holds the extruder as base arrived a bit damaged
Broken X-Axis carriage
I've decided to fix this issue with a new, simpler design, because the plastic design lacks the strength as a cylinder but has great force when applied as a structural constraint:
X axis modified top view
X axis modified bottom view
Also the wades extruder had these flaw in the part that directs the filament into the extruder
Broken wades extruder part
in order to fix that part, again, I've used a metal hook and soldered it into the plastic so now it has can withstand a bit of more force without breaking:

after all that I've managed to get to the calibration process, almost done, here's a short video of my 3D printer with it's first words to the world:
