Hi Jonathan
.
Can you explain in short words for an old duffer like me how a double nut works?
.
My guess is that there are "tensioned" in opposite directions against each other and therefore cancel out any play no matter which direction of rotation is used (can't quite visualise how though).
.
Cheers

Near enough. I recommend reading Robin's build log as he dismantled some, so you can easily see how it works ... or can be improved with springs (which I've now copied on 3 machines but with separate nuts).
