Good luck Mathew

You are guranteed to get really despondant at times but if you realise this going in you may be able to handle it.

Sometimes it seems like one step foreward two steps back but ultimately one moves foreward.

You will also learn loads. In fact it is the times where things do not work out as you wish or expect where you learn the most.

These are my experiances anyway smiling smiley

It looks good but you will need to dismantle it to fit the y-axis parts. If you follow the build instructions you will see the frame comes last.

More pictures of the build. I know I haven't got the printing bed on yet and this is because I haven't cut one out of wood yet so I decided to just put the Y-axis on anyway for the time being.
