Thanks!
Everything fit well. Snug would be the word to use not to tight and not to loose! Went together real well. No clamps, glued all the ribs, glued on the 1/4" mdf and then nailed it all together.
Was a little nervous about squaring everything up but once the 1/4" mdf was secured in place everything lined up very nicely!
I have black gas pipe for the rails, however in the picture below you can see that I am using a piece of 3/4" galvanized to check how it all fit together. It laid in place very well and lines up with the gantry side pieces perfectly.
