    so 20mm is more than enough, great! can purchase long ones then to use more of my ballscrew.

    Btw, when is needed 25, 35, 45mm ones? exist some kind of relation table?

    Not sure what you mean with the above but in order to get some good advise you need to put some sort of drawing up and it also will be good practise for later when you what to start making things etc

    25mm + rails would be for industrial machining centres where they are chasing max stiffness high throughput and long hours. But the cost goes up with the bigger sizes and the money would be better spent on the other parts to keep it all in balance.

    i already start the draws! i really liked designs like Silyavski design https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C9hTLN1CydU (low profile and moving grantry) or fixed gantry like https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K9UA9ZRFwWU

    These are very good machines i think, and maybe impossible to make for myself but will try to draw something :D

    I will use welded construction materials like IPN and UPN ones.

    will try to draw two designs to see wich recommend me

    That and the series (3 vids) are probably the best I have seen in a long while. Thanks
