gio666, how much flex in the x=60", is this why your are trying new mount method? Is there anything preventing you from sistering (double up) an additional x beam on each side?
The change was for the M5 bolts , there was not enough thread and was pulling out easy if tighten to much , in the 1/8 3/4 steel , so drill out steel and and used t-nuts behind,

sounds like you needed more and better material for tightening, good. where is the 1/8 x 3/4 steel plate position, I am not getting it, photo maybe? Thanks Rob
before he was bolting into the 1/8" plate, but it was poving not very strong threads.
now it uses the plate for support only. behind the plate is a t nut which accepts the bolt and is much stronger. with the t nuts alone, they crush the aluminium which is not good. think of the 1/8" plate as a big long washer.
theres a picture posted already, but its hard to figure out what it is i guess.
got it!
