Paul, That's pretty neat.
I see some potentional problem areas, but they might not even be a problem once the thing is made.
1. As shown, there is nothing keeping the bearing assembly from falling off the rod. (To the right, in your picture.) I guess that you are relying on an opposing bearing on the opposite side of the table to counteract this. The only issue might be that it might be difficult to assembly your gantry.
2. The 1/4" bolts holding your round linear ways are right on top of the honeycomb. This might make the honeycomb hard to change out.
Overall, it looks pretty good though, and I'm interested in seeing on how it works out.
