Finally posting an update after getting busy, getting sick, and having family visit. I've received parts from Bart and he does a great job of packaging everything together. I've gotten the frame together, v rails glued, z lifts, and assembled the carriages. I had some screws go missing (cats probably stole them) and had to go on a search to find replacements for them. Turns out Ace Hardware has a pretty good screw selection. I also know that once I finish the project I'll find the missing screws tucked somewhere under a couch.
