Re: ACME or Ball?

I think the other way around - if you don't have to ask for the
price, you have too much money :D

Seriously though, I'm thinking more in terms of price differences.
If I need to spend $1000 for all the leadscrews, bearings and rails,
not really a big problem. If going ballscrews is only $200-$400
more, I'd lean that way - if its $2000 more, no way Henry!

Of course I'm also lurking around EBay but thats not a good choice
since I wouldn't know the difference between a deal and a rip-off at
the moment.
