CNC and ANTS, Yes ANTS !

I'm relaying a message in hopes someone has a link to a light duty
gantry kit or device to handle this unique need at a university.
If someone thinks of something, or has a good link to help this fella,
please send it to me offlist if necessary, and I will get it to him.
I'll also be sure to tell him who helped!

Quote "We have need for a XYZ positioner for a USDA research project. We
have a 24" x 24" x 3/4" thick board with engraved maze of tunnels and
need to scan the movement of fireants in the grooves with a laser beam.
It would not require a lot of thurst, the laser is about the size of a
camcorder. We are looking to scan aprox. X 22" , Y 22" , Z 6"
We can assemble a kit if necessary. And weld up a table top frame. Do
you have a gantry router or such that would work for us? The motion will
be simple G1 or straight line moves controlled by a PC" End Quote.

Thanks in advance,
