My 1st homebrew CNC.

Hi... Am just building my first one, inspired by a chap from the states and his wonderful set of videos of every stage of the build.. This one http://buildyourcnc.com/step8.aspx shows his quite clever (and very cheap) anti-backlash nut, also how to terminate the leadscrew with a skate bearing and couple of nuts...

Hope this helps..

I can get hold of 12mm bore angular contact bearings for £2.00 each, much better than using skate bearings. Let me know if you need some as I will be ordering some tomorrow.
