My name is Filipe Tomaz.

I have in the past months working on my plasma cutter. I received my
servo motors today and I'm working on the linear rails for the Y axis
now with about 2000mm long (1 inch = 25.4mm). I think that I made a
good design - 0.2mm of tolerance and very low inercia and can take
heavy stuff and also light, all made in aluminiumn and stainless. I
think that I'm going to try to make them to sell at a very good
price. Probably in the weekend I will post some pictures and prices
on line.
