Evening all and sundry - This afternoon I completed the walls of Frankie. Now to survey it for basic level and figure out how best to set the top of the walls very level. It will need lapping. One rear corner of the bed is down just under 0.5mm but its at the rear where the machine can't get to, plus a waste board will be the final level. I'm not sure if I will do a base this way again. The ribs mean the walls cannot be adjusted and if one of the ribs is slightly out when first connected then its out for good. On Scoot the walls where separate and the base was levelled really well and then the walls built and levelled. I think that's a better plan. The walls are not geometrically important but the base is and in this design since they are connected all care needs to be taken as assembled. I think maybe there are too many things to get right that you can't get "right" if that makes sense...But its very stiff and acceptable for its intended use.... Peter
