    Watching that I think you lost more than one ball, I saw at least 3 fly off when you tipped out of that cup...
    -use common sense, if you lack it, there is no software to help that.

  2. Haha, yeah, thought I'd include that in the vid in case anyone (including myself) starts thinking I am in any way proficient at this stuff... Three escaped, but only one made it to the floor. the others got held up on the extended paper towel trap. I am reasonably certain they all found their way back in - there wasn't any space for more bbs in the nut anyway...

    Ok question on the new ball screw though - Started a new thread about it:
