Setting up stepper motor drivers

[croy]

Hello Roy,

That could be interesting! I am thinking of fitting the leadscrew in the normal location and making a replacement apron (really just a bracket) to carry the nut. What pattern nut do you have please? Problem with my approach is that because the L/S is slightly recessed into a kind of channel in the bed there doesn't seem to be much room for a flanged nut and I would have to use the type that has a threaded spigot. And how much would you want?

Regards, John.

Hi John,

The nut is flanged but my intension was to do away with the apron and only have a nut "carrier".
I spent over £800 on the two ballscrews, the gears belts and motors and the extension for the topslide and brackets.
Make an offer if you are interested.

Regards
