well actually in the case of the x4 its not a geometry problem i could easly make some new limit switch trigger to gain some 2 inchs of y+ travel in the y axis but i would end up with only 3" of dovetail in the base that is why i say if the table and saddle would be wider then going to the maximum travel available on the x4/x4+ would still leave 5" of dovetail thus helping cuz 3" of engaged dovetail is not enough i think as for the z i dont know yet if ill be faced with a height limit problem as for the x travel well this is an easy fix i just have to drill two new hole for the pin that activate the limit switch and voila, as for the saddle i think ill do some hoss modding and add a homemade dovetail section in the back of the saddle to lenghten it at least this way ill be able to gain 50mm of travel in the y axis without affecting the rigidity of the table and i have plenty of space to do it in its full y- position i still have 4" in between the table and the column
