The thing that confuses me is why do most designs have long gantry supports at the side and the linear bearings underneath. To me this introduces lots of potential unwanted movement.
If the gantry was closer to the linear bearings, and the bearings were raised and supported higher, you effectivly get the same Z movement but better side ways support.

Here is your design for those who dont want to download the pdf.
