I found this stage difficult to adjust for tightness for the slide rail as access to the lugs is hampered by the screw heads of the other wheels - necessitating removal of the rail each time to make small adjustments to the lugs and refeeding rail. Doable but frustrating for me.

Done at last after some missing M5 plate nuts. Thanks to 3d Printing Store for sending through the missing nuts with speed.
