Simple x-axis test
@Oyvind_Amundsen What was your travel speed? There is going to be a bit more to your X axis eventually, isn’t there? Or are you making a moving table machine?
Good boy!
@Paul_Frederick Only a simple test using a battery drill. When I have tuned the x-axis, installed end-stops, motor… I install the z-axis tune it…
Started designing the mount for the Y ballscrews/motors… - not ready yet, men something like this. 20mm alu

Tune IT I ment Get IT aligned…
@Oyvind_Amundsen Yes aligning things is pretty important. Get yourself some of these http://i.imgur.com/wpXgLtq.jpg That’s a gage block set. Worth their weight in gold, and almost as costly too. The old Hokey block set. If you want a machine accurate to a thousandth of an inch you have to build it about that close. Blocks is how I did it. I measured everything a half a dozen times. That’s why I have the fastest drawer slide machine I’ve ever heard of too. Heck I ran it up to 200 inches a minute. Most folks are lucky to get 12 IPM out of theirs. The difference? I used the blocks, and they didn’t.
Today I ordered 2 x custom length 1610 ballscrews + FK12/FF12 for the Y-axis. Soon I have all parts for the mechanical setup 
(From bstlinear at aliexpress - did order the X screw there and it seems to fine)

Yeah fact. I propose to convert the ball screws to thrust bearings, I will try to make a video of how I do it at home
