    Well I thought I would keep my progress on here. Unfortunately It's not quick but going the right way.

    I have made the frame sides and tacked the end screw plates on. Everything has been sanded down with a disc sander to give the best possible accuracy and then I have used my trusty Digital Vernier calliper although I have also made the screw holes larger diameter for a little fettling movment of about 1/2 mm Just in case.

    The next step is to start drilling my holes for the Threads. I have chosen M5 allen screws and I have ordered a cobalt 4.2mm drill for the threads.
    I just need to experiment getting the hole exactly centred for the thread holes to be as accurate as possible.
