Questions about DIY gantry designs
I have a few questions that I hope this forum will help me understand.
1)Why is it that the majority of designs I see out there have tall gantry legs as opposed to a "tall rigid wall" with the rails mounted on top? I would think that it would be easier to build a rigid wall as opposed to adding extra corner bracing??
2)With the rigid wall design, why would you not mount the rail(Cold rolled steel plate with roller bearing carriages) vertically(on edge) as opposed to horizontally?
