  1. On the right-hand side seen from the front, fit side_skirt_a at the front and side_skirt_b at the rear, leaving the fan-support gap.
  2. Drive the M3×8 SHCS into the pre-loaded T-nuts, snug not tight. M5 T-nut stays empty for 11.16.

check Check

Both segments parallel to the extrusion, top rails level with the front and rear runs, the gap matching the fan module's width.

helperHelper Holds each side skirt level against the extrusion while you start its screw.

What you're looking at

Each side run is three segments: side_skirt_a at the front, the fan support in the middle, side_skirt_b at the rear. The two skirts go on first and stay loose, because the fan support drops into the gap they leave.
