Flexible coupling would be ideal.

Align the threaded rods with the motors. (M8 threaded rod to 6.35mm shaft - any ideas...remember, proice is a motivating factor here!)

Do you mean like PVC tubing?

If so, the problem is the 'differing' diameters of the two end I want to connect ....ie M8 rod is erhm, 8mm(!) & the stepper shaft is 6.35mm ....???

PVC tubing is very crude and will not be accurate.
I am reffering to an actual coupling.
Have a look on our website, there are quite a few options, on the bore sizes, and 6.35 and 8mm are standard.
