    Cut gantry sides, I had to use 10 mm cast plate as it is the maximum thickness I can cut with any reasonable accuracy. Very happy with fit, Ball screw support nuts and HGR15 carriages fitted in to 1.5 mm pockets in gantry plates and x axis cross beams 'sat' in their pockets with just a very small amount of play, about 0.8 mm. The gap can be closed with light finger pressure. I am going to thread the holes and tighten up x axis cross members and loosen off the ball screw support nuts and it there is still a gap I will make some shims.
