i originally had the stock mounts from metal-maslow and had problems with tilting to the “other side”. Like described here [Metal Maslow tilts at the top](https://forums.maslowcnc.com/t/metal-maslow-sled-tilting-at-top-of-frame/13287)

After this i contacted metalmaslow and he advised to raise to 3.5 inch, which i did.

I did just hold the sled up with my hands and the sled angle is close to 100% (99.9%). Measured with my android phone. What would be the optimal angle? Same as the working area?
