** We will have to choose the lead screw, the bearings for the end of the lead screw, and the lead screw nut
** We wil have to design & manufacture the lead screw/carriage flecture
** We will have to choose the spindle shaft & bearings
*** We will be given the housing for the spindle shaft
** We wil have to make the decisions on the bolts/threads for the bolted joints
*** The holes will be placed for us, we will tap them ourselves
*** We will select the bolts & nuts for purchasing
*** We must do the math to back up our decisions
** We will have to do most/all of the design & manufacturing for the drive train system
*** Chain, gears, belt?
*** Plan on this being a "huge time investment"
