      Well i was swapping the last few part i made for my printer , took all the old gantry and motor mount out , install new Y axis everything fit well like i had intended then i come to put a new motor mount , and it about 12mm too high , him like how ? so i go back on the pc and reviews my assembly everything is flush , than start checking some dimension and well the rail and block were off in my drawing ... moral of the story double check your part with a caliper before drawing them and printing part that goes with it ...

      ended up just putting a a temporary spacer to fit the difference , to get the printer back up and running to reprint the motor mount another time later this week !

      i had not expected this ! more part for the part bin at this point i probably have enough part to assemble a few printer lol

        @Dad003 yes, one of the favorite books I have is "Measure Twice, Cut Once" by Jim Tolpin.
