I put the Onefinity to work to create parts for a full gantry upgrade for the little 3018 CNC. I designed new side plates that are located with dowel pins at the bottom (a new addition from the stock machine) that locate the side plates accurately. I also machined very precise fitting holes that locate the 12mm rails thru each side plate. This locates the rails parallel to the table. The previous setup had a bit of slop in both the X and Z axis that caused vibrations & chatter when cutting. Feels good and solid now, with no perceptible play or slop.
