Before replacing couplings, check the collars next to bearings and see if they are tight.
Use 3D printer for small jobs and CNC router for large jobs. I'm in the process of building a model car from scratch using plywood for large parts...
I think that lead screws should be longer so that bearings and collars are outside the end plates instead of inside so that there will be no screw...
What about Kindle Books?
Has anyone try to calibrate their machine so that test square is exactly 100mm X 100mm X 5mm? I tried to do it as best as I can. What about this:...
