This is just a test piece to check how well the taper locks up: was pretty good with just letting it drop in under its own weight, it would stay in when held upside down, and with a tap of a mallet i wasn't able to pull it apart by hand :)
Adjustable gas strut to help with the weight of the heavy z axis:
That's all for now apart from the rails and ball screws that everyone has seen before, material for the bed has been ordered and hopefully will be starting this soon :)
Hopefully everyone likes the build so far!Last edited by totts; 25-06-2014 at 09:02 PM.
