    looking good
    some will advise you to add diagonal bracing to the frame and swap around the profile rail and blocks on your z axis so the rails on the back of your front plate.
    I also used a lump of box section for my Y axis but none of the sides were flat/even enough to mount profile rail straight to so I plated it then had it ground flat...that was for a fixed gantry though so weight wasn't an issue..
