Sturdy and Fast all Steel CNC , my first build

[Boyan Silyavski]

The key there is to leave possibility for alignment.

I mounted the plates so all bolts touched the holes from one side, and as they were laser drilled they were more or less straight. But later i drilled the holes 1-1.5mm wider. So at the moment of mounting i had not only the margin of the hole itself , but of the widened hole. So its easy to adjust cause there is space that allows it.

The other key is to have 2 precision squares and 1 straight edge. So at all times you can check and assure perfect fit. You can not measure how perfect, but if you insist and try that no visible gap is left at any place, you will finish with very precise machine. And not be lazy, cause you need sometimes to check a simple thing 10 times untill you are definitely sure its straight.

And when i say check, i mean check with strong led torch
