thanks jon, another question though

what size drag chain would you recomend? I'm thinking 25x38 or 18x38.

it will only be for two steppers using YY cable, spindle coolant, spindle also using YY and a general coolant pipe.

and I'm going to use a Alu plate for my Z axis with the rails on the spindle side like yours, there will only be 200mm of travel.

would you reccomend using thicker then 10mm?
