[QUOTE="Timber_MG, post: 35660, member: 18"] What kind of figures are the commercial offerings? I am sure a frame constructed from angle iron and some bearings (perhaps 20mm rod from http://www.cncdirect.co.za/htm/linear.html and bushings from http://www.kelinginc.net/SlideBlock.html or something DIY). If you don't have a problem with speed screw thread will be cheapest (and have enough sticktion to stay put), otherwise rack&pinion (I believe electronics123 have some plastic rack&pinion with suitable geared motors). A simple switched circuit should be able to start and stop the movement. [/QUOTE]
