Starting the Y movement parts..................







so, I very quickly realised that the clearance will be reduces when the Z assy goes in ! oh well, I'll try and design it to be as thin as poss under the Y.

I had some precision supported rail (without the support ) from the skip (dumpster) stuff.

I cut it in half with an angle grinder, and made some supports from angle iron I have knocking about.

That's about it for today. I bought some M8 threaded rod / bolts / nuts / and washers, so will start on the bearing trucks tomorrow
