i'm thinking about some deeper modification on Y axis. See pictures. What ya think? Y axis ball screw is to be lowered, say 20mm. It will give me opportunity to go out with ball screw at the back side of the mill base without unnecessary colisions. Stell plate will serve as support for bearing block and servo. Additional advantage of this solution would be good access to work table as powerful servos are pretty big and it is unconfortable when it sticks out of mill toward you My servo is 350mm long including encoder! Add another, say 100mm for bearing block and gearing and you are half meter from table Another thing is that i can mount oryginal knob on ball screw for easy hand operation when not using cnc.

Flenser--> how did you blackened nut block? just painted? what material you use for block? aluminium?
