Next purchase list

This is what I'm going to need to stiffen the X axis, plus a few parts to broaden out the table.

One 25-5010, 1800mm long.
Four 25-2575 1830mm long
eight 25-4113 4-hole corner inside brackets to join the 25-2550s.
thirty-two bolt assemblies (75-3404 m6 x 10mm w economy t-nut) to tie in the 25-4113

To stiffen the vertical legs, which are wobbling a bit when we move the table around we'll add joiner plates on the middle legs to see if it helps.
2 25-4165 8-hole joining plates
sixteen bolt assemblies (75-3404 m6 x 10mm w economy t-nut)

six 25-4132 2 hole inside gusset corner brackets (2 for the midspan and 4 for the corners)
twelve bolt assemblies (75-3404 m6 x 10mm w economy t-nut)

When we switch out to larger motor mount plates, we'll also need screws that are .15 inches (4mm) longer (because the motor mount will be .25 inches thick, not 12 gauge.  That works out to:
four M5 x 34mm Button Head Cap Screws
eight M5 x 24mm Button Head Cap Screws

We'll also need to extend the carriage for the Y-axis, but this is enough for one night.
