[FTC]: Drawer slides as a linear lift
The current team that I am mentoring is using the Tetrix rack and pinion kit for linear motion applications. And there are problems with it like the small plastic guides. If you have them to tight the system will not slide easily and if they are loose they won't stay in place. So they want to give drawer slides or similar slides as an option. After looking at some examples I'm not seeing how they are being lifted. We understand the rigging of a cascading elevator but are not sure how to set it up with a drawer slide. Do you use pulleys to hold the wires? Or what?
