Quite an Unusual one

[Boyan Silyavski]

Wow, 3 posts, it seems i had a lot to show and say

-the Z again, 2 spot welds to hold the side plates in place



-thats why i did not bother before too much rectifying the back Z plate. No i pushed it flat to the whole straight assembly, so all fell in place. Then spot welded CAREFULLY



-I know Dean, OTT and too much but that cost me only 30euros more. I promise never to do that again.



-squaring the Z in both directions against the straight edge that lies flat on long rails. this took a couple of hours to do it properly until satisfied



-another consequence of the mistake i made here





- That must be the most bad ass DIY Z axis i have seen on single gantry machine , OTT but make me proud and smiling when i look at it, so i assume it was worth it , did i say it looks like a missile ready to launch ?


See that big, no - huge mill vice? Thats a gift from Jeff for the build. have to rethink this and that for the bed. I never imagined i will have some day such a beauty. On other hand its not fair some people to have 3 of them
