Finished the entire gantry (except later modifications for HGH blocks) 
Changes:
- screws added to every single part (around 138 fasteners currently… my poor loctite bottle)
- small 3d printed part added to make sure the y axis stepper doesn’t move
- improvements to brace structure
-fixed the pocketing
-made small extrusion so the sfu nut housing doesn’t make contact - fixed small parts not being centered (sfu nut housings)
What’s Next:
- finish adding linear rails to gantry
- figure out base material (i.e. concrete filled aluminum extrusion, epoxy granite filled aluminum extrusion
- finalize bed size (i’ve changed it like 3 times already)
- Design base
- add enclosure so I don’t have to clean as often
- fix the screw sizing (I have like 10 different screws atp 😭)
- figure out how my hand isn’t gonna break when assembling this
