    Found that older thread here discussing a Z drive. The one post has a link to some excellent pictures of a homebrew Z drive.

    Bump.
    Anyone have any drawings or plans that they can share of a z axis housing design?
    I like the Elrod type design and don't really wan to reinvent the wheel.
