Making Progress ...

I finally spent some time lat night to get the X and Y axis put together and it is really starting to look like a CNC mill now. The X-axis slides smooth though I think I may have an issue with the Y-axis. The Y-axis slides smooth though it hangs in some spots as it is being moved. It is enough that I can feel it while moving the gantry. I quickly took a look at the V-wheels and found one that is wobbling so I think this may be the problem. I am going to try to remove the V-wheel temporarily to see if this is the issue and see if I can fix the wobble.

I guess the next step is to make sure it is square .. any tips?
