Purchasing new parts for new build.

[samsagaz]

With a short a travel required on the Z axis I followed some advice on here and virtually did away with the gantry sides and mounted rails on top of a pair of 6x2" box sections which resulted in a very solid gantry with little effort.

It did turn out a strong build and have been happy with rigidity and weight so far a few things I would change if starting again, hindsights a wonderful thing, but as I have no previous experience in any sort of metal work apart from bolting some lightweight frames together a lot of the changes would be things learned during the build.
