Let's talk cooperation. Perhaps we should take some of the details off
list although we don't plan on being proprietary with this project.

We plan on using some oversiize nuts for the McMaster Carr 5/8. This
gets backlash ~0.001 which the EMC and I suspect most other controllers can
handle without getting quirky.

The motor info is good news. What kinds of control and amps are you using
and what rapid speed do you get with them?
