Proposed Amendments
Amendments proposed in comments (uncomfirmed)
think i also found some errors in the plan:
you say 10*(M3*30) i can only find 6 on the drawing… maybe you counted the 4
threaded rod in to the number?
close conected to above… you say 2*(threaded rod M5*100) but i count 4, one
at each end of the 2 walls or one in each corner if you will
you forgot all the nuts:
22*M3
14*M5
8*M6
and some washers for the ubolts so the wood is not crushed
8*M6
for under the long alu angles (one in each end of bolt)
12*M3
same for the 4 rods
8*M5
for the short alu angles
4*M6
for the 4 bolts that holds the bearings on the holder for pick&place and microscope
8*M3
