When dry, will turn the nagtry to normal position , rest the leveled side plates / epoxy on epoxy/ and pour the final epoxy at the top side of the gantry beam.
So with these steps i will achieve all hiwin rails lay on epoxy surfaces that are paralel to each other. The only thing left will be to ensure squareness of Z. I hope to achieve a quite precise machine.
Hi Silyavski,

Guess you have been pulled away onto other things for a while, but I really hope you will be coming back to continue with this great build thread. . . . .

I am particularly interested in whether your intended technique worked in getting the gantry rails parallel?

Cheers, Andy
