Hello from Canada. I really enjoyed your video about making a flat plate. I'm about the make one for hand lapping. Hey'a fr'Can-da. I fasht ur video 'bout makin ' a fl' pleat. I'm ofta make un fer han' lapin'. all kidding aside: keep up the guid werk!!!
@@potatodemon1607 hey thanks for the comment, glad you enjoyed the video. I was gonna get a new mill from ( arceurotrade ) they do good hobby mills and lathes. But I checked eBay daily for mills and came across the one I have, it’s a 1970 Korean mill called naerok< Korean backwards lol. It’s a solid mill for what it is. But need bringing back to life, check my channel for that video.
i have been looking into backlash lead screws. they usually have a stiff spring so it keeps them locked and it does a pretty good job. wha's the reason for not using a spring?
Yeah it could have been used but the way I set it up does exactly that, the 2 piece are perfectly spaced apart to take up that little bit of wiggle, and just the way I made that block that goes under the cross slide there was simple no room.
It’s basically a m8 with a 2mm pitch. TR8 Here’s the link to the one I got www.ebay.co.uk/itm/284018677159?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=L2304HqnQ2q&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=bDmQoNn-R3O&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY
There’s the other nut I got www.ebay.co.uk/itm/284771178038?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=L2304HqnQ2q&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=bDmQoNn-R3O&var=586748773882&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY
Sorry, but it's a very bad idea to use this lead screw. It's a lead screw for a 3d Printer and the pitch is much to big. In the near future you got a lot of problems with this lead screw.
