DIY CNC Router Build (large Format 5x10ft, Rack and Pinion)

This is a not so little summary of the build of my homemade CNC router, aka The Overpass. This instructable is more of a documentation of how I build my CNC and is not to be mistaken as a tutorial for buidling a CNC.
The initial target of my build was to make a large format CNC router which does not compromise on the quality and functionality. This was a little hard to achieve on a tight budget but I managed it nonetheless.
As for the inspiration and info for my build, I had a lot of help from the Joes CNC forum. Also I was much inspired from the CNCrouterparts machines and learned whatever I could from their website. I highly recommend to check them both out. I also watched a ton of youtube vid for an unaccounted number of hours (or days maybe lol).”
