Wow, cool Jonathan. Can't go wrong with that. Thanks!
Robin, yes please, need those.
Made another draft of X-axis screw. Please is this any good now?
- added a thread to the other end. And also a similar "structure, a fixed mount" for the ballscrew. So there are now two such mounts, one at either end of the screw.
- there are two (2) screws in picture below, but it is the same one single screw.
-- The other one just highlights, what components would fit, and where. Like hand-wheel, pulley, shims, Belleville washers.
Not sure about the dynamics, kind of figured out, that with this setup, the Belleville -washers + half nuts at either end of the screw ---> would tension the screw sort of around either end fixed mounts. Please correct if you think one has mis-understood the principle.
Gary, the 34mm height ballnut gets me off the hook. Thanks for pointing out these alternatives. Will speak to you about other components.
Thanks!
