	Marcin,		Marcin,

	~~I like your suggestion about the~~ gear rack.		If gear rack comes in 6 foot sections, here is a joining procedure:

	~~If the length is up to~~ 6 ~~feet for the rack~~, ~~can I simply join two lengths together? What~~ is ~~the~~ procedure ~~for that?~~

	[[Image:gear_rack.jpg]]		[[Image:gear_rack.jpg]]

			Use metal rack and pinion for durability, as opposed to rubber (neoprene) belts.
	~~Also, are the pinions affordable, too? The~~ rack~~, if it's $23 for 6 feet - that's just about the same as the rubber belt -~~ and ~~it's probably more desirable to have metal~~ for durability, ~~wouldn't you say?~~
