At this point, I am just going to start on the gantry mounting and check it at different points as I go.

This is how I did it.
First rail as straight as possible then I mounted the gantry and slid it back and forwards as I was drilling.
Then I took it off and tapped all holes.
Then remounted for tightening the screws and worked as close to the gantry as possible :)

I have a feeling that that is also suggested in the Hiwin manual. Certainly worked for me!

Oh! Haven't read that one..

I read the mycncuk diy manual. It's quite a read but lots of good pointers.
And the best part.. it got pictures! :D

I did read the manual but all the warnings about how accurate you need the mountings to be worried me so much that I closed the manual and just carried on anyway!
