Me again
I replaced the 20mm linear shafting and it certainly tightened it up.
Replaced the X, Y ball screws and doubled up on the nuts to add a 1kN preload :naughty:
The ebay M8x.75 half nuts I bought on Monday haven't arrived. Can't thread the ballscrews 'til I have the nuts or it suddenly becomes guesswork for the length and die closure.
A very nice man at bellevillesprings.com gave me half a dozen washers to preload the thrust bearings. Their £15 minimum order translated in to 150 pcs :whistling:
The metal for the splash guards did arrive so I will probably start on that.
Pic is the bed and saddle upside down.
