I remixed Druckwerkstatt 3D's cube upgrade that holds the Pastamatic's guidingstone in Place. The original from the great Pastamatic never stayed in place.  I stuck some tape on it when I first made it and I left it that way for over a year.  Finally decided it was time for a few upgrades.  Bolts and nuts to replace the pins in most locations, and this cube will no longer have tape holding it in.

What I did was take Druckwerkstatt 3D's STL files, drop them in Blender, and scaled the holes only on the X and Y axes to 75%, which is just about right for M3 screws.  I didn't have any M4 screws appropriate for his model but I definitely have M3 left over from other projects.  M3x12 was not long enough, M3x16 worked.  M3x20 may or may not stick out, I did not try it.  It would hold, but I hate bare screw ends sticking out. 

Good luck and happy printing!
