I've decided to do another video, which takes much longer to put together so let me know if this is better than posting pictures.

In this video I attempt to align the 4 rails flat and parallel to each other. They still need lateral spacing/alignment but that will be the next step when it is assembled into the Y axis and they are trammed in. Here are the edited highlights:

great work, with the level of attention you are paying to the details this is going to be a very impressive machine at the end!

Cheers for the encouragement Clive, Desertboy, Zeeflyboy.

Next up will be re-machining another 1 mm off the Y axis pockets to correct the small CAD error I mentioned earlier, then assembly/alignment of the Z and Y axis. Hopefully no more surprises!

More progress on the Z axis.

Finishing touches, lateral rail alignment, and fitting the ballscrew.
