Slow progress is better than no progress

I have only had just enough time these days to screw down the motor end and bottom clamps to the base of the Delta Steel, and try out the screws for the heatbed. This is what the MDF base looks like now:


The large round hole in front of each bottom clamp is for the GT2 belt. The smaller hole you can see at the back is for the heatbed power and heatbed thermistor wires that will go to the RAMPS electronics which is underneath the base.

I have checked the distance between the columns and it seems I have indeed an equilateral triangle, +/- 1mm. We'll see during calibration if my build was sufficiently precise or not.

And yes, the table is a total mess.
