Hi All,
I planning to build a cnc machine and I've been looking at different rail systems....whether to go with linear bearing or linear carriages or other types. And drive systems, ball screws, acme screws, rack & pinions, etc.
Since I'm new to all this can someone explain the different types of systems, thier costs, the best and worst etc. Or show me where I can go to get the information?
I originally wanted to build a budget machine but looking at those linear bearing systems and ball screws systems interests me...
Also frame construction...steel or aluminum extrude?
The purpose of my machine is to make guitar necks, bodies, and small aluminum brackets...
I really like the machine, it's the size I'm looking for.

I'm wondering if I can build it cheaper the price...
