    Hmm this might have been talked about already.. but is the gantry spanning the long axis instead of the shortest possible?
    Or is the image playing tricks on me? ;)

    There was method to my madness, I originally had SBR25 and 15mm clone Hiwin's so I decided the SBR25 could take the most weight and made my gantry span the longest axis. (This is 1.5m) then I ordered 1 1.4m ballscrew and 2 1m ballscrews. A few weeks later I managed to score more original 15mm Hiwin's so now the whole thing will be linear rail.

    If I had the Hiwin's originally I would have built it the other (More conventional) way round but hey hoe.

    If this is a real issue with flex I will have to buy another 1.4m ballscrew and convert it over it wouldn't be too hard.

    If you didn't buy it from China the company you bought it from did ;)
