Inexpensive Linear Actuators

[vonlark]

I've seen these recommended elsewhere http://www.trossenrobotics.com/linear-actuators.aspx
but these seem to be extra expensive. Anybody know where I can find some actuators with a long stroke length but less price?

the actuators on servocity are $199 a piece

What about just using a rack gear to create linear motion from a servo or a motor?
You can see an example here towards the bottom of the page http://www.vexlabs.com/vex-robotics-advanced-gear-kit.shtml
You can probably find more using google.

what stroke length, force, and price range are you looking for?
