Re: Rack & Pinion local suppliers
I've built a plasma table about 1200 x 1300. There is a guy on eBay called CNC and Cupcake World (or something similar) who has some cheap racks which I purchased for my gantry. It is fine When I built my table, I settled for these guys (who were selling on eBay at the time)

The reason I used their rack and pinion is becasue using their 5:1 timing belt reduction drives saved me making one which would have cost similar. I will say their Helical rack and pinion is superior to the square cut one I got off ebay. I had to upgrade to NEMA 34's to use these.
I ended up using 25mm Hiwin rails from another AliExpress supplier who was much cheaper than Noulei and similar in price to the 15mm rails I bougt from CNC and Cupcake world.
