Step 4: Z-Axis Part 2

Now to complete the z-axis assembly. You will be able to see an axis in motion. This is also the assembly that will hold the router and move it up and down.

Quick Steps:

1. Make the z-axis rail support piece by cutting an undetermined length of board and chamfering the edges to apply angles to each side.
2. Put an angle on each side and assemble the sides with the linear bearings to determine the measurement of the z-axis back support.
3. Cut the back support at the determined measurement.
4. Connect the back support to the two sides.
5. Fasten it and let it slide.
