I like it, but it's not going to be as precision as a ballscrew driven quill. Can't compare the accuracy of a spur gear to a ball screw, like apples and oranges. But will probably be fairley repeatable, and depending on how accurate your Z axis needs to be, might be pleanty suitable. Definatly cheaper, thats for sure!
