    I would keep all the ballscrew sizes the same and use 2005. Just a question on your sizes. You have listed the Y axis as being longer than the X axis. Most cnc machines have the x axis as the rail and the Y axis as the gantry. Are you making a machine that is wider than it is long or making the rail axis the Y axis?

    Regards

    Thanks Ian, in fact no I was going by that German engineer in the link I gave, he describes the rail as the Y axis
