Tools required: M5 tap, some oil for tapping. M5 and M3 allen wrenches. Wire cutters / strippers.
Recent: Added versions for 2040 Verticals and 4040 verticals. Horizontal extrusion should be at 2040 for either.
Tips: Instead of buying 1500mm x 2 for the horizontal extrusions you can buy 500mm x 6 to save some cutting.
