    Looks great. What are you expecting for a rapid speed on you Z-axis? That looks like a pretty fine pitch ballscrew.

    Servo's are 1,000 rpm max so not too worried about max Z speeds. It is fine pitch but that keeps me from having to have a break or spring to keep the spindle from falling when power is off.
