    Set up a straight edge parallel to the master rail 300mm away and put a DTI on a carriage and moved it up and down the rail. There's about 0.25mm of twist/dip mostly near the rear of the machine.

    Only conclusion I can accurately draw however is that my DTI is too cheap as it moves all over the place i.e. doesn't return to zero after going up and down a few times...need a better quality DTI....
