would love to see the process of it if you ever decide to do it :)

i have a couple of questions because im actually just going to get it machined for peace of mind.

1. would it be wise to also have one side of the frame machined flat so when getting the first rail on i can use a dial indicator against the machined side to help align the rail and then i can just use the gantry to slide the second on in place or is this not necessary?

2. once i get the frame back and levelled how likely would it pull the rails out of alignment when bolting to the floor?

3. how expensive is it hiring transport/fork lift to and from?

biggest thing ive ever had transported was a 8ft reef tank

thanks again
