Very keen to see how this goes as I'm thinking a 8'x4' machine could be my next build and have probably enough steal kicking around to build one. What are you designing it to cut?
Are you not tempted by ball screws for the long axis as well?
I'm thinking that by the time you do all the rack and pinnion stuf ball screws would probably not be much more?
