    I will admit that the main frame components and the side pieces where snug but otherwise everything went smoothly.

    An update for those following along...

    ABL setup completed and very worthwhile as I no longer have to check the bed regularly. I used the following parts.

    I printed and installed these threaded rod covers so I don't poke my eye out.

    I created and installed this rounded spool holder cross member to stop the spools making noise while turning.

    I printed and installed these vibration dampening components, well worth the effort and made the machine much quieter.

    I also spent time yesterday cutting all of the cables to length, sleeving them, and crimping new connectors onto the wires.

    The machine is now looking much more respectable and working very well.

    Congrats Nice work. Thanks for sharing. I should be building in about a week and I'll likely use some of your suggestions :-)
