    Hi MP

    Take a look here,you can't go far wrong getting some ideas off this design,even though its in mild steelbox section,its a similair design to your own and is worth considering changing the material for its construction.
    A welder will or might charge you somewhere in the region of £50 to £70 to weld it together? providing allthe cutting is done by yourself and a drawing plan submitted.

    Irving,if I was to buy the trapozoidal TR16x4? what pitch and threads per inch would I have to set on the mini lathe? I have not mastered this side of the lathe yet in terms of screw threading but will have a go.

    Sorry forgot to mention....its for the ballnuts internal threading.
