I was hoping to finish the T-nut for my QCTP today, but it this is as far as I got. The Aloris toolpost bolt was too big to fit in the PM T-nut.

What was wrong?

I'm ordering the Aloris QCTP with my 1340GT, If I know what the issue is I can get PM to check it

What was wrong?

The very top of the T-nut is the same as the gap where it slides in. I am going to trim it down so it fits in tightly, but I ran out of time.

I also need to get a nice finish on the top and bottom faces.
