Hi All,
I am wondering what you folks are doing/using for ball screw lubrication on your CNC Routers?
I know that wet lubes are out of the question as the wood dust would be attracted to the screw like, well, flies on poop. Enclosing the ball screws in an "Dust proof" bellows is not only expensive, but very difficult to achieve. So, I am figuring some of you have found the magic "Dry lube" that works good with ball screws.
TIA
Chris
