Finished making the last set of plates, these are for the X and Y axis, ballscrew mounting. Hopefully this is the last of the aluminium work on the manual mill. I still need to make some stepper mounting plates but leaning towards doing those in 3mm steel.The white parts are 3D printed standoffs for the X axis ballnut holders, I didn't have any large enough ally stock so we will have to see how they fare. They get clamped between two aluminium lumps so should be ok, if not will replace when I have some bar stock.
