If you design a machine to be affordable, lightweight, and easy(er) to
manufacture, but requires some software assistance to do that, that's
not necessarily problematic. I would call that innovative - making use
of all of the tools and resources available to you to solve a problem.

Hey, all!
I normally just listen to the wisdom spouted by all you experts (the
status of which I aspire to reach someday!). I built my own
gantry-style router running LCNC. Each side of the gantry is driven by
it's own stepper and Acme screw.

Two servo motors/encoders on the Y axis, trivkins configuration (configs are in
the links on the page). Gets an amazing amount of use at Maker Works in Ann
Arbor and runs great. See catchy video

Charles,
I use LCNC on gantry routers and plasma machines with dual steppers on
the X axis all the time. I simply slave the second motor in the HAL file
with an inverted DIR signal.
I have my motors driving on a Rack and Pinion setup always and I have a
spring loaded motor plate to apply
