Apart from screwing the last sections of the skirt base together, very little to do as we need later parts before the rollers can be added to the base plate. One little complaint is that the screws that secure the mounting brackets to the cross rail are a little long and needed a little fettling to allow them to lock in tightly. As supplied the mounting plates were left floating around a little, but a quick run on the points of the screws allowed a tighter fit. Now waiting for the next shipment, but that only includes one motor, and two are needed before this section can be completed. We are over a third of the way through the kits though which is nice.
