Has anyone on this list made a spinning nut, verses spinning the screw as normal.
Here is a question to put to the group...
Would it take less torque (or Power) to spin the nut rather than spin the screw. For example.
What if I had an 1 1/2" screw, that was really long. This would weigh alot. I would need power to turn the screw, (because of weight), and more power to push the carriage.
verses, Less power to turn the nut,(weighs less), and the same amount of power to move the carriage as in the example above.
what are your thoughts.
