Gas strut, Pictures Z axis

I'm looking for photos of Gas strut installs on the Z axis on RF45, ZX45, Hafco 45 ect mills, i'm needing to install some and am wanting to see how others done it.

Rusel shows an interesting option here
A few other options shown in this thread

I opted for simplicity. Mounting a common compression strut to the base of the column, then to the Z Axis mount plate.

Here is a pic...

And then proceeded to mount them upside down according to the manufacturers of such things.

Good point, gotta fix that. Maybe in the mean time, you can fix your delivery?

My delivery is what it is...

It's pretty well fixed at this point.
