Then put the gantry over the work area:

And slide in two T slot nuts at each makerslide on each sie:

We will use these T slot nuts to attach the corner plates, with M5 8mm button head screws:

And then you can use M5 12mm button head screws to attach the makerslides (you will need to lift them up):

Do this at the four corners.
