* 3D Printer## Assembly
**Note:** Any dimensions are measured on the inner parts of the frame.
#### 1. Thread all the profiles
![](images/assembly/IMG_4875.JPG)#### 2. Put M4 nuts into all printed T Slot nuts
![](images/assembly/Step1.gif)#### 3. Place the T Slot nuts in the following profiles:
* 2x 6 nuts in 500mm
* 7 nuts in 500mm
* 3 nuts in 400mm
* 4x 2 nuts in 300mm#### 4. Screw the frame together using the M6 screws, 300mm+500mm profiles and the 2020 Corner Connectors
#### 5. Screw the PSU frames to both power supplies
![](images/assembly/IMG_5283.jpg)#### 6. Screw the PSU support Right Angle Brackets
**Note:** ~116mm from the back.
![](images/assembly/IMG_5285.jpg)#### 7. Screw the MOBO standoffs and MOBO
**Note:** Leave ~100mm on both sides.
![](images/assembly/IMG_5284.jpg)#### 8. Screw the PSUs to the main frame
![](images/assembly/IMG_5288.jpg)#### 9. Screw the raiser beam using the M6 screws, 150mm+500mm profiles and the two 2020 Corner Connectors to the frame using Right Angle Brackets
**Note:** 100mm from the front.
![](images/assembly/IMG_5290.jpg)#### 10. Screw the Raiser Rails to the beam using M4 screws
**Note:** Place the first one by the left edge and then space other ones 44mm apart.
![](images/assembly/IMG_5292.jpg)#### 11. Screw the GPU Bracket Rails to the upper part of the frame
**Note:** Place the first one by the right edge and then space other ones 55mm apart.
![](images/assembly/IMG_5296.jpg)#### 12. Screw the raisers to the Raiser Rails with M3 screws
![](images/assembly/IMG_5300.jpg)#### 13. Wire up the raiser data cables
**Note:** Don't tie the cables yet, that's the last step.![](images/assembly/IMG_5301.jpg)
#### 14. Wire up the raiser and MOBO power cables
![](images/assembly/IMG_5307.jpg)#### 15. Place all the GPUs and screw them to the GPU Bracket Rails
#### 16. Wire up GPU power cables
#### 17. Boot up and check if everything works correctly
#### 18. Use zip ties to clean up the cables
I recommend using [ethOS](http://ethosdistro.com) to manage your rigs. The setup very easy and fast saving a ton of work when configuring / managing more GPUs.
