1. As far as I'm aware the bearings and rail do not care which way you have them but you need to think about how you will mount them so that they are level with each other across the frame, and that they are the same distance apart along the frame.
2. On a 700 wide machine I think you will need 2 ball screws.
3. As you say, the equal belt length method looks best.Last edited by EddyCurrent; 25-11-2014 at 11:45 PM.
