Note* This build could have also be done using the Mini V Plate and Mini V Wheels as well as the new V-Slot Gantry Plate - 20mm version for a smaller gantry system. Instead of the larger Universal Gantry Plate.
In fact anytime you are mounting the gantry to the 20mm side of any size V-Slot the Mini V and the V-Slot gantry plate (20mm) can work as the gantry plate.
