Is this normal??

What is the point of building this on a FLAT surface? The Aluminum extrusions (4x) do not go flush to the bottom of the frame. Is this normal or do I have the right size of extrusions?

Yes, this is normal.

Using a flat surface has nothing to do with the extrusions per se. Once you have the frame assembled, you should check that the frame cross-members (i.e. the front, the main frame and the rear) are all sitting perfectly level on the flat surface. Any mis-alignment of the extrusions will result in a lifted corner which will allow the assembly to rock on the flat surface.

It is well worth taking the time to get this right.

Cheers,

Tim
