I’m building a cnc mill (36”x24”x12” and this is the first time I work with metals (aluminum). As you can see from the pics in photobucket I have the sliding blocks on the rails which I have to attach to my cnc and I have a hard time aligning the holes on my aluminum members for drilling.

I wonder if there is a method / jig to make this process easier. I know that there are these things you put in the holes to transfer the pattern but the sliding blocks have 5mm holes and I can’t find those things in metric
I do have the drawing / dimensions of the blocks but even with that I can’t get it ok. I guess even the angle of the scriber has an affect
How would you do the drilling?
