epoxy question

[driftspin]

Thanks guys for your intrest in my project.


Ok i really have to start a build log.. but maybe make one later and keep that clean..

I guess starting a build log is ok after basic bed frame is done.. current progress state is clean up after welding.

I am not sure about epoxy leveling the bed before or after making the legs.

I would bold the legs to the floor, spirit level the bed , and then pour the epoxy on bed and x axis and 1 side of the gantry y axis. flip the gantry pour the other side.

Bed frame is 1850mm x 1160mm
z will be +/- 200mm depending on expoxy thickness on gantry

Box section is 80x80x4 and 120x80x4


so.. 1000mm x 1500mm x 200mm

I am not sure you are understanding the correct purpose of the epoxy. You have to epoxy both rails at the same time so that they end up on the same plain.

What do you mean by this:- then pour the epoxy on bed?
