Hi Doug,
I've had passable luck on ebay for ball screws. Sometime you look and
there is nothing and other times several good ones. Just depends.
Good hunting.

Hey Doug. Thanks for the report. Good thoughts all.
You might look at www.McMaster.com and search for ball screws. Or
attempt to put the link below back together. Their 5/8 screws are
about $1.25 an inch and the nuts run $25. I used a single nut to
test lash and got between 0.001 and 0.003. I know folk who used
two nuts on a single shaft and a Belleville Disc Spring or two
between. I don't use the bearing end blocks rather I make up my
own using trailer wheel bearings.

I am using threaded rod but it makes for a very slow machine. If
anyone here has a line on good inexpensive ballscrews please let me
know.
