    I suggest you make your gantry from 2 pieces of the same profile you will use soldered together, hence 200x100 or 160x80
    The gantry will probably made as you say from 2 pieces of 80X80 or 100X100 profile, covered with 10mm laser cut aluminium plate just for acuracy for the holes distances. This plate will be bolted on the gantry box section and may be adjustable in order to achieve paralelism with the table.

    depends what means you have.
    As for the means, i dont have mill i dont have lathe

    maybe a gantry like Jonathans will be better, look at his exemplary build
    I have read many times Jonathans thread. So many in order to understand what i am reading. NO COMMENT. What else can i say. I cant follow this plan beause it is out of my budjet, and i dont have the means and the knowledge to do such job. For now the only think i can do is design 4-5 type of tables and ask the polite guys of mycncuk to give me their advice and make their corrections
