Without seeing something Malcolm, with my inexperience, I'd find it difficult to offer any kind of solution. I've seen parts available on a uk website CNC4YOU ... seems to be a lot cheaper than I've been advised here for screws and bearings. Anyone used these guys before? There's fixed and floating bearing supports for sale on there Malcom if that's of any use.

That’s where I bought the lot from. Fixed at one end and floating at the other.

I wonder how I’d go about fixing the other end. It has a floating bearing, it’s only held on by a sirclip, other end is designed to be fixed

Hi Malcolm, As you have probably gathered by now the Ends will need machining to fit the Fixed type bearing. However, this alone won't make a massive difference it's the screw speed that is Key.

You will buy the same stuff from China a lot cheaper than he sells them.! . . .Where do you think he buys them.?
China at the minute is on Holiday but when you have the design nailed down and know lengths etc then Email Fred here for a quote.
