I know machining will be the easiest way and the best way but those parts are to heavy to move around easily for me. Let me first try i with epoxy and if that fails or not giving the right result i can always consider machining.

I have ordered a straight edge and epoxy few days ago. My plan is to use the way Markus Müller did on his huge EG milling machine.
He pressed his straight edge in the epoxy to get an almost flat surface an from there he scraped and sand the surface to get it perfect flat.
I ordered the same epoxy as him, that one is special designed for this applications in machine building environments.

The problem with the epoxy it is to soft and as you torque the rail capscrews to the correct torque the rail will sink into the epoxy, if you new you where going to do this then you should of machined them first and then just scraped them after

A lot are doing this but it is never going to be as good as a machined surface
