Assembling Gigabot: "Everything's in the Box"
Here's how to construct your Gigabot after your kit arrives in the mail, or is picked up from Texas.
We're writing this guide assuming you're starting from the Gigabot Kit, also known as "Everything's
in the Box".

Step 1 — Assembling Gigabot: "Everything's in the Box"
Find a suitable place to construct
your Gigabot
Find a firm, flat surface that is free
from debris.
Try to assemble where Gigabot
will be permanently printing
Keep in mind that once
constructed, Gigabot will not fit
through most standard doors
Skim through most of this guide, so
that you understand the scope of
what you need to do, and if you
need help from a partner during
assembly.

Step 2 — Base Assembly Preparation
Locate 4 Corner Plates with no identifiers or logos. See Fig. 3-1.
Insert an M5 x 8mm BHCS (button head cap screw) in all 7 holes and fasten loosely with T-nuts.
Locate 4 Triangle Braces. See Fig. 3-2.
Insert 2 M5 x 12mm BHCS in each Triangle Brace. Use 2 M5 washers per BHCS. Loosely
fasten a T-nut on the opposite end.
Note: DO NOT use Cross rail with “Gigabot” label until instructed to.
Locate 2 Cross rails (33.5” extrusion that has 2 tapped holes on each side )(not the Bed Cross
Rails). See Fig. 3-3.
This will be the bottom/back cross portion of the frame.

Step 3 — Base Assembly - Rear/Lower Rail
Install 2 Corner Plates, one to each end of of one Cross rail (this will be the rear/lower cross rail).
See Fig. 4-1.
Slide in Corner Plate with T-nuts loosened. Ensure the edges are lined up and the bracket
edges are flush with the bottom and end of each rail. Lightly fasten down the bolts to prevent
movement.
Temporarily screw 2 M5 x12mm BHCS (button head cap screws) and 2 M5 washers per BHCS
into T-nuts . Insert the 2 T-nuts in what will be the top channel of rail. See Fig. 4-2.
Note: The BHCS and washers will be used later to fasten vertical rails that hold the
power box.
Fasten a Triangle Brace to each end of rail (lower inner channel). See Fig 4-3.
Place near end and keep T-nuts loose to allow for adjustment.

Step 4 — Base Assembly – Rear / Lower Cross Rail Panduit Installation
Locate the 30” long Panduit, this is slightly shorter, and approx. one half the width and height of the
larger and longer 30.5" Panduit. See Fig. 5-1.
Fasten 3 M5x8 mm BHCS (button head cap screws) evenly along length, and 3 T-nuts to the
Panduit piece as shown in Fig. 5-1. Spacing of the t-nuts along the Panduit is not critical for this
step.
Keep the bolts loose to slide the Panduit to the top inside channel of the rail, then tighten the bolts.
See Fig. 5-2.
Ensure proper orientation of the rail with respect to the Corner plates, by observing 2 T-nuts on
the upper channel. See Fig. 5-2.

Step 5 — Base Assembly – Side Plate/Rail Preparation
Locate 2 Side Plates, 2 Common Rails (31.5" long) and 2 12” Panduit pieces (shallow Panduit).
Observe orientation of bolt hole patterns. See Fig. 6-1.
Insert 4 M5 x 8mm BHCS (button head cap screws) on each side plate. Loosely put on T-nuts.
The 4 BHCS should be inserted in opposing directions on each plate. See Fig. 6-2 for
orientation of front.
Slide 1 common rail on the "inside" side of each side plate and center the rail. See Fig. 6-3.

Step 6 — Base Assembly – Side Plate/Rail Preparation
Install Panduit on each side rail.
DO NOT tighten bolts at this
time.
Fasten 2 M5x8mm BHCS and 2
T-nuts to the Panduit piece.
With BHCSs loose, slide the
Panduit to the top, inside channel
of the rail. See Fig. 7-1 for
orientation.
Repeat for other side. Then add 6
M5X8mm BHCS to 6 T-nuts
above rail on side plates as
shown in picture.
Warning!!! Warning!!! Warning!!!
This step is easy to miss,
because these T-nuts are not
used until step 18. And it can't be
done later. Insert 2 T-nuts into the
top channel of each Common Rail
installed on the side plates. These
T-nuts can be seen in the top
channel near the end of the Panduit
in Fig. 7-1.

Step 7 — '''Base Assembly & Front Lower Cross Rail Preparation'''
Orient each side rail on table and connect with the Rear / Lower Cross Rail assembled in step 5
and 6, by sliding the T-nut of the Triangle Brace on each side into the lower channel of each side
rail. See Fig. 8-1
Ensure all of the BHCS (button head cap screws) are still loose in the Corner Plates and the
Triangle Braces. Square the corner and screw in 2 M5 x 12mm BHCSs on each end of the Cross
Rail. These are the 2 tapped holes on each end of the rail. See Fig. 8-2.

Step 8 — Base Assembly – Installing Front/Lower Cross Rail
Position front/lower Cross rail assembly in front to complete the square of the frame base.
Assembly should be similar to Rear/Lower Cross Rail assembly See Fig. 9-1.
Do not tighten bolts yet.
Square the corners (without tightening any bolts).
Insert 2 M5 x 12mm BHCS (button head cap screws) through the side plates into the ends of the
Cross rail (these are the 2 tapped holes on each end of the rail).
Align the frame and then tighten the bolts in this order:
While compressing the front to back of each side, tighten M5 x 12mm BHCS (4 /side or 8 total).
Tighten M5 x 8mm bolts on each side plate. (4 /side or 8 total). See Fig. 9-2.
Tighten both bolts in each of the 4 triangle braces. While tightening, pull each brace into the
corner to ensure it is flush against each Cross and Common rail (8 total). See Fig. 9-3.
