https://www.makerstore.com.au/product-category/transmission/gears-racks/ Makerstore Australia seem to be selling a delrin rack and pinion system compatible with Openbuilds V slot. I find this pretty intriguing as I am looking to build a fast, large system for CNC as well as raster engraving with a diode laser. I assume the Delrin would wear and need replacement regularly but it should be okay for light duty use. They sell a variant of the OX with support for the pinion gear, has anyone ever heard of someone who uses it or something similar? https://www.makerstore.com.au/product/kit-oxgear-full/#frame-sizehttps://www.makerstore.com.au/product/kit-oxgear-full/#frame-size
Hi there, just stumbled accross your post this is exactly what I am after looks like a great addition to make a 8 x 4 machine with screw on the z/x. However I am in the UK so have just asked them for a price to ship here
Yes, it seems pretty neat. It’s a good store and apparently it lasted really well in testing. Not as durable as steel, but easy and cheap to replace
