Making the Mini+ Smaler

Hey I need to make my Mini+ smaler, like 1,5cm in X direction, to fit it in a Box 📦 How can I do it? Is it possible? Is there a different assembly to make it smaler? I hope you guys can help me. Thanks

disassemble the Z axis?

See my GitHub and printables.com for some 3d stuff that you may like.

Do you mean for shipping (in a box) or for use (in a closed cabinet)?

For shipping, take off the Z axis, but otherwise don't skimp on the box size and the padding. For use, I don't see an easy way. It should in principle be possible to arrange the vertical support profile behind the Z guide rods and spindle (rather than on the right), or in front of it if you also flip the X motor over to the back. But that's a significant modification with multiple new parts. Not worth it, I'd say.
