Add additional details in your docs to show a klipper starting point and change thingiverse to more resent design with more info

Good klipper config starting point for a Galileo made from the 1.5 LDO kit
Set run_current to RMS value dependent on the motor you have:
LDO-36STH20-0504AHG - 0.5A Peak ~ 0.35A RMS
LDO-36STH17-1004AHG - 0.5A Peak ~ 0.35A RMS
LDO-36STH20-1004AHG - 1A Peak or 0.7A RMS
Wantai EL36H20HM-1884A - 1A Peak ~ 0.7A RMS

[extruder]
rotation_distance: 35.65692
gear_ratio: 7.5:1
microsteps: 16
full_steps_per_rotation: 200

under
[tmc2209 extruder]
run_current: 0.7
hold_current: 0.1 <-- My klipper complains if I set to 0 as recommended by instructions on thingiverse

I will be adding more info as I get more time, for now I wanted to make sure the CAD was put out and available. One thing to note about the LDO steppers, the last 4 numbers after the dash signify the maximum current rating. 1004 is a 1A stepper, 0504 is a 500mA stepper. While those are the MAXIUMUM currents, there is a point where additional current doesn't help... When the coil gets saturated, additional current is just turned into heat. I'm still doing testing for "recommended" current on each of the LDO steppers, and will be publishing the info I have from that.
