    I think building a machine is absolutely the best way to have a full understanding of what makes it tick and wish you every success with your efforts.I do wonder if having a relatively long and quite slender axis moving across the machine as a result of the input of a single central stepper may lead to disappointment as it may tend to rack.The more usual disposition of steppers would be to have two slaved together on the gantry base and one traversing the gantry with the other driving the Z.How much Z axis travel do you need?
