riddle me this Batman...after installing the gantry on my new 2.4 build I adjusted the z distance from the top of the frame to the top of the Y rails to the same distance front to back both rails. Then I check that the X distance between the Y rails front to back is the same. The X rail had a little racking so I loosened the three screws on both sides of the X rail then move it around until both sides of the X rail touch the front and back of the gantry with no play on either side. I then slide the X rail the the front of the frame, tighten the screws then slide to back of gantry. The right side of the x rail touches flush to the back of the gantry but the left side is like half a mm from touching. I tried several more times with same results. As long as I don't re-tighten the x rail screws the x rail touches front and back of gantry with no play. But after re-tightening, the left side has just the slightest play, light half a mil, when at the back. The X distance between the Y rails front and back is dead nuts the same. The Z distance from top of frame to top of gantry is the same all around. I'm I chasing my tail here because my next thought is to remove the gantry, dissemble it and reassemble again carefully checking after each step, which I thought I did. What's the definition of insanity again...I could use a good suggestion...thanks
