What are some good projects for beginners using ROS for linear motion?

I want to drive a block carriage on a linear rail using belt drive machine.I want to use stepper motor open loop control. I have made URDF of the robot and followed moveit setup guide.But I am not able to figure out next.

This looks more like a lower level control scheme. What you could do however is write a ros_controller for belt_driven robots and contribute it to the ros_control project!

Some good resources to help you along your way would be these ros packages: rosserial ros_control
