    Way to go Hoss! Soon you'll be producing your X2 Freak and selling that too.

    I went to the link in your post Tom and followed the link to the ballnuts Hoss provided and noticed that the screw is $10.09 per foot.
    Has it always been that way? I thought I remembered it being about twice that. Seems to me I got a quote from Nook for like about $120 for a 6 foot screw and similar from McMaster. Now I'm looking at McMasters and theirs are $9.73/ft. Did I have a brain fart or has the price actually gone down?

    And if I could give my .02...

    The CD that he has available on the Freak conversion is worth every penny! I got one to get the drawings for the 4th axis conversion. In fact, my mill is running right now milling the new headstock bearing opening in a chunk of aluminum. I'm building this straight from his drawings.
