Ned,

Timing belts would also be my choice for this application. They are
remakably strong....steel cable reinforced...and quite accurate. They
can be obtained in a variety of widths. Properly pre-tensioned they
work well with good life expectancy. Industrial application is in the
X,Y,Z axes drives for rectilinear robots and pick & place automated
devices.

Here's a system I designed and built about a year ago. The linear slide
and timing belt drive, minus motor and controls, came as a preassembled
unit from Item.
