    Slow progress due to a sudden lack of loot. Wallet is now full to bursting again and here are the next 22 pieces of it...

    This is the Y axis which is essentially two 30mm round rails with a gizmo in each corner. Back left is the stepper motor which connects by axle to the back right.

    The two front gizmo's simply connect the shaft to a support and a belt tensioner.

    The bits in the middle are tooth belt fasteners, lumps of ally with grooves to take the belt teeth.

    I'm cutting tongue and groove joints then putting them together with Araldite. It comes out really rigid
