    Leadscrew cover for your Sherline mill

    Hi, I've made a video about making a leadscrew cover for your Sherline mill. You can see it at www.ixen-cnc.com. Hope you'll find it useful.

    Thank you for the great video, chuck! I don't have a Sherline mill any more, but the concept is fantastic (I do have a couple of THK linear slides that need covers...)

    Best regards,

    Randy

    Thanks guys for your comments.

    A cut up dryer hose seems like a good idea. They're not very expensive and comes in various sizes.

    Does anybody have the template for the bellows? Could they post it here? Chuck's website is down.
