that is a nice solution. i had always imagined two screws coupled with a belt

The gantry is driven with just one motor, but I have a wire and pully
system to keep the other side running parrallel. There is a pully at each
corner of the table and the wire goes diagonally throught the table to the
other side, all through some nice slots in the torsion box.

Good work. I note the presence of BS1363 mains plugs, so presume you
are in the UK too?
