Re: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] Re: Lead Screws...where do you get them???

Wade,

If you go to my web page at www.campbelldesigns.com and look under machined
parts you will find the motor mounts that I use made from 4" sq aluminum
extrusions cut 4" long. You will also find the bearing mounts.

If that helps and you want the cad drawings, I can send them to you.
