Hey guys,
I am in the process of building another cnc router. I have been looking all around the net trying to find a supplier of Rack and Pinion where I dont have to get a quote. I want to buy. I know what I want. ( I dont like mcmaster carr ). Does that leave me with any other options?
Thanks Steve

Steve - maybe these guys want a "quote?" too -- I had them bookmarked for a similar project -
I also do like the mcmaster nylon racks for a few small aps - but loads would be problem.
Cheers - Jim

Reid Toll has all their prices on line. 25% more expensive than McM.

Another option for a slightly different type of rack:
