24-06-2020 #11I took the a rough height map with a DTI clamped to the Z. As expected from bringing the rails into plane with laser and epoxy I have around 1-1.5mm total error (this was the frame error before pouring epoxy). The cross members of the frame are also not perfectly in plane and would require a little shimming under the bed.
I'd rather have the bed closer to planar that this, although the eventual spoil board skimming will fix it, so I'm contemplating attaching some shimming material to the cross members and surfacing this then bolting the bed plate down on top...Clive
