i made this support brace that use two 70cm curtain rods from ikea:

You will also need 4 screws M5x30mm, 4 M5 nuts, 2 screws M6x30mm and 2 M6 nuts.
you can order from here:

1. install the bottom brackets by re-using the M5 screws already on the machine, the "bottom-right" bracket goes to where the power switch is located:
2. insert an M6 nut in the NUT-Plug, (optional).
3. insert the curtain rods to the bottom brackets and the NUT-Plug to the top side of the rod.
4. remove the 4 top screws that hold the top gantry and use them to hold the top brackets on each side.
5. insert an M6x30mm screw to the nut, this screw is for adjustment, if you have a problem with your gantry not being 90 degree to the base you can use this screw to pull or push the gantry, i use a digital level to check for the angle of the gantry, it only works with the Screw-Cover.
6. Use 2 M5x30mm screws and nuts to fasten the Screw-Cover, this part is for holding the adjustment screw in place:
you can attach the brace with 2 m3 screws on the bottom of the printer but i found that it is not needed and will only make it harder to open the bottom cover.
