    Hi Shotfun, can't you simply loosen your x gantry carriage plate at the black angle corner connectors and square as needed?

    hey gary, thanks a bunch. for some reason im having a bit of an issue with opening that link. is it these connectors here in red? can it help doing the ones in yellow? im not front of the machine right now but I thought the right side counterparts to the bolts had concentric spacers. as far as the video goes can you try reposting here or maybe just the user and the video title. I can go from there. thanks a ton

    Sorry about that, I updated the link its just the build video, yes the ones in Red, make sure that vertical C-beam is square first then adjust your router mount until your trimming is square.
