Threaded View

Hi, I've seen a nice design for an z axis using a R&P instead of a ballscrew. I suppose i've been looking at an R&P because its potentially cheaper. I'm mostly cutting foam and light density board and hoping for a fairly deep z axis.
Has anyone got a good example of R&P used for an z axis and is there any reason why not to use this system over others.
Thanks
