Re: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] Shoptask parts/need 17-20 ACME leadscrews to"borrow" or buy cheap.

See Tim Goldstein's web page. He machined up some new ends
and then joined them to his ball screws. I will probably use
this idea when I get to my mill conversion. Seems easier than
finding or buying an extra set of screws.

Here is a link to Tim's page:
