Thanks, that is a really great article. I think I'll be going the ground ballscrew route. I wish I could find cheaper ones though. This machine is really costing a lot of $$$$.

Yeah, you haven't seen the rails, carriages, motors, wiring, electronics and BC drive, spindle, vfd drive, 220 line. This thing is 6 axis. I'm sure I bought off more than I can chew, but I like to tread in deep waters.
