    Looking really good now well done. I wasn't happy with my 2 X-axis ballscrews so sent the worst one away to be straightened using a hydraulic press. My original post is here:

    Looks like I never followed up this post but it came back really straight and ran sweetly in the bearings.

    I decided not to send out the ballscrew which was only slightly bent and fitted it to the machine instead. As Jazz mentioned there were no noticeable problems.

    I know your spindle mounts are only temporary perspex parts, but I assume the real parts will be much thicker (my first ones were 20mm aluminium and worked well).
