Another View

This post is a continuation of yesterday's.

Another angle on the gantry slide.
This shot is to show the bearing that supports the slide, as the linear bearing doesn't do anything to stop the slide from rolling on the rail. I put in a 608 (skate)bearing to roll along the top of the box section.I'm relying on gravity to hold it down...
If you look closely, the vertical part of the L angle is not parallel to the box section. The 608 bearing is too high. Its out by a mm or so. Bummer. I'll have to mill out the hole and rely on the countersink to keep it in the right place.

 Here is a wide shot of the work so far. I'm off for 8 days, so no posts for a bit.
