Very interesting. I have been considering building a CNC router for about a year now. I've done a little work on the design but not near what you have here. I've got the linear rails for the "X" and "Y" and an almost complete "Z" axis slide unit. Plans are to use a router (which has already been bought and is still in the box). What size of work envelope is your router? The rails I got are 110" for the "X" axis and 56" for the "Y" axis. I wanted to have a work envelope of at least 8 feet by 4 feet so that we could work on an entire sheet of plywood, if needed.
Please keep us posted of your progress. And when I get started, I'll post some pictures as I go.
