Many Thanks for this Russell; I have one of these as a gift - long story. This is exactly what I need, but two questions: Roughly, what isthe Max height dimensions with the Z conversion fitted; and what stepper are you using to drive it.

Total height with head in highest position is 1.07 m. I can't remember the model number of the stepper motors but they are NMEA23 size and about 80 mm long.

Thanks,
I have enough headroom and I have Nema 24 motors 425 oz-in; I have done the screws and fitted the thrust bearings. Also have the acetal and the the Acme tap is on it way from china (20 quid). Will post when I have completed the nuts and mounted the X/Y motors and tested.

Hi Russel,
I am getting ready to convert my Z and really like your design. I would like to make mine the same way.
Is there any chance that you can email me or upload the ball nut assembly dxf again? I clicked the link but it appears it is no longer valid.
Thank you, and again nice work setuo!

Not sure what happened with the old one.
Russell.
I've replied via email.
