Wow I've never been so overwhelmed my numbers. Irving I know you took your time to write that out for me buddy but a lot of that means nothing to me as I'm still learning. But I will read it over until I fully understand.
I would rather stay away from the belt drive, from what I have read there would be too much stretching it the belts.
I first need to get the gantry to the point where i know it's going to have a good outcome. Did you have a look at my diagram? Do you think they are too close that it would cause some slop or would not be sturdy enough? I will get this right first but also leave the option for both screw or rack and pinion to be used.
