Hi Ted
Warco only support the X axis screw at one end, thrustwise. If you stick with that arrangement you may need a fat screw. If you hold X in tension you can save yourself a lot of work trying to fit fat ballnuts.
If you are planning on using the Warco thrust races, you are probably also planning to skip putting a screw on the Z. This is a recipe for disappointment.
My experience with Marchant Dice has not been wonderful. I replaced his "zero backlash" screws with Gary's screws, then added springs. Kevin once kept me waiting weeks for a piece of 10mm rod.
