DOH! Can you say "noobie"?
BTW, I know some guys are gluing the rails in place. Is there any need to do this? Personally I don't see it.
Today I spent a couple of hours scrubbing the rust and black stuff of the pipes that I got for the X. It was all that was available locally. I ended up chucking them in the lathe at one end and holding the other with a fixed steady. Now they are clean and I can go ahead and install them...at least I could if I had not put the gantry on backwards...2 steps fwd and 1 back.
It is a long weekend and since it looks like rain tomorrow and no flying I will likely get everything assembled. Will post pics and hopefully not embarrass myself again!
