The drive end needs to be fixed and the other end needs to be floating.

To keep the costs down look at the pre machined ball screws unless you can machine them yourself.

With regards to ballscrew ends. Whats the difference between floating or fixed ends? (looking at Zappa website). I think i will go for one either end to support the ballscrew better but i am not sure the differences and wha ti would need.
