    Hello, I want to upsize my OX from X-500, Y-750 to the largest size in both directions. I'm thinking 1500x1500 however I am concerned about flex.

    I have the thicker full plates in use now.

    Any thoughts?

    Personally I would not make the X larger than 750, Y is OK at 1500. If you want to make the X axis longer, I would look at upgrading it to a CBeam setup.
