I finally got around to posting some pics of my build.
Day one and two I did all the wood work, cut, fitted, epoxied and painted. I wasn't looking for pretty, just functional but it turned out fine. I did use industrial MDF instead of plywood, so we will see how it holds up. I also made a change and made both left and right the same. I may put another stepper motor on the opposite site to even out the movement and eliminate a possible chance of racking.
Day three I made the x plates, angles and rails.
David.
