    Ok making some progress now fixed issue with rails being exposed with a bed overhang - read allot about ball screws so going to tackle that next - feel the learning curve is huge and keep going back to the design and tweaking, feel like this is never going to get finished . And as i type this i am thinking i have no cable tracks (are they called "energy rails") so another snag added to my list!!
