Anyone have some examples (pictures) of alternative way of mounting pinions for rack and pinion drive other then CNC router parts? And what advantage/disadvantage they would have.

and yet another one.
we are half way there
+1

+one
only a few more.
and finally, the last one.
Just a few notes:
- It is very unclear if steel and aluminum plates have big advantage over Delrin or polyacetal ones. There are claims that later ones can have vibration issues, but I'm not so sure that is true.
- Smaller pulley have to have enough contact (teeth) with the belt, so the distance between pulleys must be big enough. Smaller assembly looks nice, but larger ones are better design.
Wow! Thanks for all those pics.
