On backlash, two words: Ball Screws. I won't have to take anything out, with the gib in there I still have 30 or 40 thou clearance top and rear around it. Like I said, its schloppy. Oh, and if that glue is anything like what they use on the bottom of a mouse to sort of hold the mouse feet on (they are polycarbonate & just as hard to glue), anything that even smells like oil will destroy it in days. That is also a thought, polycarbonate might make a better way shim than teflon, in fact I believe its harder. > On Sun, Aug 26, 2012 at 9:50 PM, Gene Heskett <[email protected]> wrote: > > On Sunday 26 August 2012 21:48:50 jeremy youngs did opine: > >> http://www.ebay.com/itm/Teflon-Sheet-For-16x20-Heat-Press-Transfer-Sh > >> eet > >> -/170521187058?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item27b3dad2f2#ht_1523wt_9 > >> 34 > >> > >> im revisiting this, what with genes concerns and all, im thinking we > >> are all trying to figure out how to adapt these old machines to > >> modern standards.
