    Thanks for sharing the pricing it is good to keep up with latest costs.

    Yes agree Gecko probably better option in this case.
    Do I need 2 drivers for the X axis where I have 2 motors?

    The rack and pinion would run along the side so that dust ect would not be a problem, I would start with a MDF top and later on probbaly get a Aluminium T slot if they make them that big.
    Yes you can buy the t slot alloy you may have to look around but its used on the commecial ones
