Hey tschrag, > [@tschrag](#): > > but as I’ve seen mentioned elsewhere, the dust falling on the lower Y-Rail can be a bit unnerving and require special clean-up attention during longs cuts (although it’s little enough now that I have dust collection working that I’m not bothered by it) that would be my sorrow too. But I have seen that many people make a cover for the rails and ball screws, even when the machine is operated horizontally. See [a few examples here](https://forum.onefinitycnc.com/t/wall-mount-orientation/18600/2). > [@tschrag](#): > > Another considersation that haven’t heard mentioned is oil - I didn’t think about this when I set it up, and all of my oil ring ports face downward… so I can’t really use them (meaning lots of manual oiling). I think you could swap them so that the oil ports are on the other side. > [@tschrag](#): > > I will also say, that now that I’m actually thinking about building an enclosure to really keep the dust at bay, I’m kind of wishing I would have just made the space to have the machine on a table to begin with - Yes, that’s what I generally think. I cannot imagine if you use the machine more or less seriously, a vertical mounting of worksurface can be a source of joy. I think it is a solution if you really have not the room but see yourself in the urgent need to use the machine anyway. > [@tschrag](#): > > You really don’t save all that much room when you consider the space you need around the machine to work on it… good point. --- _[View the full topic](https://forum.onefinitycnc.com/t/wall-mounting-a-x50/21600)._
