That is exactly what I had in mind zee, albeit I was thinking about trying to make my own slightly smaller version.
Trying to get my X and Y square today, it was absolutely miles out. By drilling out the gantry sides mounting holes to 9mm (8mm for the ones on the side which also hold the cable chain) I got it to 1.14mm across the 355mm span of the X, no amount of forcing it into position will change that. I think the gantry side arms might just be twisting now and the ball screw/rails are holding firm in their position? Any ideas anyone?
Can't believe I never noticed how far it was out before. Measured some bigger panels I cut early days and they are indeed parallelograms rather than squares and rectangles.
Must have been a new guy made my machine. It really is a piece of ****.
