Mounting M3 Y-axis idler

[timelab]

I have an M3 with Starboard, assembly has been going well. One minor (hopefully) problem.

On the bottom of page 23, for the install of the Y-axis idler assembly, it says use an M6x25 bolt to mount the corner bracket to the back frame board. But the hole is too small, I can't fit an M6 bolt through the hole on the back frame board. The 2 easy fixes that come to mind are either use an M5x25 bolt or drill out the back hole a little wider and use an M6x25.

Since I'm not in a rush, I figured I would ask first, just in case this indicated I screwed something else up, or if there was any reason to prefer one or the other.

Thanks!

We are aware. The screw will cut threads through the material. It is a 5.56mm drill versus a 6mm screw. It will thread right through in that softer material.

Thanks! Yeah, I figured I could force it, but I wanted to be sure it didn't mean I had something backwards or misplaced.

Thanks again!

Glad to help.
