Hi
I'm planning a 4 x 4' router build similar to a Joe's EVO / Hybrid and looking for 1/2" racks 20 pitch 20deg pressure angle.
I see McMaster Carr and a few other US suppliers do these. It would be good to avoid the usual high freight costs from the US to New Zeraland.
Any recomendations of local suppliers or possibly an Aliexpress recomendation?
thanks
Patrick

I've built a plasma table about 1200 x 1300. There is a guy on eBay called CNC and Cupcake World (or something similar) who has some cheap racks which I purchased for my gantry. It is fine When I built my table, I settled for these guys (who were selling on eBay at the time)

The reason I used their rack and pinion is becasue using their 5:1 timing belt reduction drives saved me making one which would have cost similar. I will say their Helical rack and pinion is superior to the square cut one I got off ebay. I had to upgrade to NEMA 34's to use these.
I ended up using 25mm Hiwin rails from another AliExpress supplier who was much cheaper than Noulei and similar in price to the 15mm rails I bougt from CNC and Cupcake world.
