Greetings everybody; I just spent over an hour, trolling the net looking for a decent copy of the footprint for one of those 2505 nut mounts, because I need to carve up a spacer pad to put under it, 16.5 mm's thick.
I measured the length and width of the one I bought as being 35mm wide and 60mm's long. But when I finally find a printable, readable copy of a 2505 mounts footprint, from DSG, they show it as being 40mm's wide, and 66m's long. I have real serious doubts my new last week 6" all modes digital caliper is that far off. I'll see if the bolt pattern is also different tomorrow. This chart says the pattern for the 6mm bolts is 24mm's wide and 50mm's long. Or, ugly thought, revoltin development even, is there more than one "standard" mount for a 2505 nut? ================================= Results of testing the bellows, done with a battery drill on the screw, moving the nut about 3 meters a minute, do not seem to indicate a problem with the air passages I made around the nut, it marches right along with the biggest effect appearing to be a twist moment from the wire re-enforcing in the bellows. So I am losing interest in pressurizing it, but may install a venting system in one end with some silica gel the air, if any, will have to pass over/thru. And with the length of the screw, they are not restricting the saddles motion as I still get 37 to 38" end to end. What would be neat, but not terribly practical, would be to cut into the nut mount, and force the air as it moves back and forth, thru a silica gel cartridge like I use with my air brush. But there's no room for such gingerbread in there. Cheers, Gene Heskett -- "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
