In the video for the rack build you install a motor cover that has enclosed sides and an extended part that I believe is attached to the 3mm plate.  I do not see that smaller side cover, nor the holes for it in the plate dxf, nor the spacer enclosures.

Those motor cover side pieces and spacer enclosures are not included in the standard DXF download at the moment.

They are part of our finished plate packages. The reason is that those covers require several additional small parts, and some of them are laser cut with our RawCNC logo. The logo detail is quite complicated to cut and would make the parts unnecessarily expensive if someone ordered them individually from a local laser cutting shop.

So for builders cutting the plates locally, the machine can be built without those cosmetic/cover parts. They are not critical for the function of the machine.

For our finished plate packages, we include them because we can cut and prepare them together with the rest of the parts in a more controlled way.
