Don't underestimate plastics. They make gears for lathes out of plastic these days (and even in the '60's). Just separate load bearing sliding function from transport.
Expert in non-working solutions.
Just for a break, OP, consider a solution that does not require a rack-and-pinion. Today's materials might help. Considering such a solution is a good mental exercise. Inventors go outside of convention to discover novel approaches.
I built a wide angle wooden 4x5 camera frame that slid the lens against a vertical slide rather than the base. It locked focus using a large Wing nut. No bellows, no movements which will strike some LF enthusiasts as silly, but it was wide-angle. So be it.
Just trying to free up pre-conceptions.

There you see it, Andrea. Some of us would like you to not only forget about your plastic rack&pinion but also about bellows, movements and focusing altogether on your LF camera.
By now I think you understand that a lot of the so called advice you will get is just a pure concentrate of, well ... not much sense rumble. Just keep your common sense.
