Right ive had an idea today about how to make a cheap anti backlash nut would really liek some feedback about this idea, sorry if someone else has had the same idea as me, not trying to robcredit where credit is due
ok, the basic idea is that you have 2 plates with a threaded hole in both separated by a compressable shim that offers resistance to being compressed.
The image (antibacklash_idea.gif) pretty much speaks for it self, the material id plan to use for the "shim" would be a plastic pipe of some sort
does this work as an idea?
cheers
Nak.
