Admission Time Folks!!!

I am afraid that I broke with the whole democracy thing a little and 
made an executive descision!  I really hope that no-one minds.

I was looking to build the X axis motor and idler mounts and looked for 
a decent design.  In the end i looked to a variation on Prusa's V2 
design (The rest of the frame parts came from the PrusaV2) by Greg 
Frost.  This design is really intended with LM8UU bearings in mind.

So I have placed an order for a set of linear bearings and printed parts 
with them in mind.  I hope that I have not overstepped the mark, but I 
reckoned that linear bearings seem to be the way that all the builders 
are heading.  Less sticktion, longer wear and they look cool!

I can always use the X-carriage stuff in my own printer if anyone minds 
waht I have done.  I am planning to update my printer once I am done 
making the GOSHG parts.

Wade in with the criticism....

Blair
