Of course, my mill has this luxury , as jaydee's mill does not...So nothing to compensate for in arcs for my machine.
But for a few bucks he could convert it to more accurate ACME screws with antibacklash nuts and reduce the play considerably.
Mine has got anti backlash nuts? Also has compensation? All apart of the CNC conversion. But the slop I have is not in the drive screws it is in the table where the two peices slide. Anyway I would like to see anyone try and make this block with any mill!!! Good Luck! Now that you say it isn't going to be hard, I think we have a volunteer!
