I already made my first wooden cnc-router, but got obsesed and want to build one more![]()
I´ve found two acme lead screws measurering 30mm/~1 1/4" in diameter and 600mm/~23" long. They got a pitch of 6mm/~4 TPI. Both of them are very straight. My idea is to make a "table-moving" machine with a fixed x-axis, primeraly to cut small wood parts. The table should then be around 300mm/~11" long.
What are the chances to get a good result, if the table is only supported by the screws, using no linear guides?
Estimated table weight is around 3kg/6.6lbs
