Before I found this site I purchased 55" long 20mm round (unsupported) linear rods. I'm wishing I'd purchased the fully supported rails. Will this create a problem? What kind of weight are these rated for?
What is the maximum Y axis you would recommend for being driven by 1 ball screw?
I plan to use this machine for mainly 2D cutting, mostly MDF and plywood, but don't want to limit my options too much, but also want a stiff gantry. What height would you recommend from the sacrificial deck to the bottom of the gantry?
