Yes, it should work. You will need to spend some time setting it up but 
once it is square in all axes it should be fine. Allthread rod is 
surprisingly accurate.

Don't use the suggested motor driver design. While it will work it will 
be very slow. Something like a Xylotex <www.xylotex.com> driver will 
give much better performance.
