    It would be nice if they sold the pieces, I would really like the Y rails to be the same as that X one. their built in V groves on the larger square rail have some real potential.

    I've emailed them asking if they sold or have considered selling just the rails but received no response.

    Too bad! That looks like a good solution!

    I played around with the design for this for a while, but ultimately decided to shelve the build for the foreseeable future.

    I have no plans at the moment to build it.

    Why did you shelve the build.. Do you anticipate a flaw in the design? I am very serious about moving forward with this... The reinforced gantry is a great idea. Using that with a belt on belt or GT3 Belts should prove very effective..

    Time and money - but mostly money.

    Understood... I appreciate the time and effort you have put in the design... I do plan to turn this into a reality! Hopefully you can still be a part of that with me!

    so are you using standard OX plates or are they custom designed ones to take the 3 20x60 rails?
