As steve mentioned and what i experianced is that the Lead screw was just ever so slightly larger than the bearings so i mad my own lathe so to speak as steve did, and used a fine file to run it back and forth where the bearings will go. Here are pictures of mine and also the harber freight 26 dollar drill i picked up yesterday (local). variable speed 1/2" drill very good price for what i wanted it for. Also has a locking triger.
