Tip: Vibration noise Z bearings and LCD panel

After assembling my Prusa i3 MK3 kit I noticed some sort of vibration noise. I just want to share the experience I made.

1. Noise from the LCD panel.
Fix: Just ensure that the screws which hold the circuit board inside the case have been tighten.

2. Noise from the Y bearings. (rubbing / grinding noise)
Fix: I didn't align the bearings correctly. As per the manual, one row of the balls have to be on top of the axis. After re-alignment and some additional oil, the noise was gone.

It might not help everyone who experience some irregular noise from the printer, but maybe some can get rid of it without the need of buying other bearings.
