Found some 2"x6"x0.125" aluminum tubing. I'm going to try to make this axis housing to work on any axis. It will have 8 outside reach V-wheels four in each v-slot plus two more on the drive slot. You can mount on the open face an X-axis plate and then build the same for the X-axis. You could also use a short length for the Z-axis and instead use the traditional z-axis screw and motor mount.
Idea for any axis support and Drive
Build in 'CNC ROUTER BUILDS' published by dakman, Apr 27, 2016.
Just an idea right now but will attempt a prototype in the near future. Not sure if this has been tried before or not.....
