So just another plain rod in the missing corner might be all you need, I missed the cable anti racking thing too. |
Easily done. I'm just thankful to have someone else casting an eye across this design.

I just finished making the first rotating nut. The original nuts are 24mm long and 26mm diameter. I have turned it down to 20mm and fitted a bearing and 30 tooth pulley onto it. Looks OK.. now I only need to make three more!
Here is an image of the design with the added stiffening on the gantry.
