    Your machine looks great, thanks for all the advice.

    I've increased the plate width to 170mm now. The z rail centres are 118mm apart at the moment. Do you think the carriages need to be separated more in the z axis? (They are 119mm centres) I'm trying to reduce this length as much as possible in order to reduce the total height of the z axis plate (if that makes sense.

    Also, is it worthwhile pocketing the carriages slightly like I've done elsewhere?
