Linear rails on an Elegoo Neptune 3 Max!?!?! (Part 1: X & Y)

UPDATE: TBStron3D is starting to ship linear rails with 27 instead of 28 screw holes in their Y-axis kits. The modification to the long bracket shown in the video is NOT required or recommended for kits with 27 hole rails.

In this three part video, we modify our Elegoo Neptune 3 Max printer with the X, Y, and Z linear rail kits from TBStron3D (strong3d.myshopify.com).

In part 1, we install the X-axis and Y-axis linear rail kits and then perform a buddha test print.
In part 2, we will install the Z-axis linear rail kit and perform a couple quick test prints.
In part 3, we will test the print quality after the three rail kits have been installed.
