Z axis mount

Post date: May 26, 2016 10:03:47 PM

One more piece- this time the mounting plate to attach the Z axis to the X axis rails. It came out... hopefully OK. The part shifted a bit while trying to elongate the holes on the lower right. And of course I screwed up the gcode and forgot to drill the other holes (leftmost) before that. I think I got it realigned (ie, they should be square to the rest of the holes), but who knows. At least the rightmost holes are non-critical. I was hoping the left holes would be a good alignment reference, but it's not the end of the world if I need to drill one of them out a hair. I'd rather not, but that's the way it goes.

Fortunately everything else came out well enough. The edges need to be trimmed a bit, and there's a pocket on the back that still needs to be cut, but it's getting there.
