Hi all, need some help. I have a cnc'd mini mill that I am having trouble with the y axis. When I move it either way, then stop and switch directions, the table first moves in the original direction about .005 before actually moving in the right direction. This happens under stepper control or manual.
I cnc'd it using fignoggle plans, which are very good by the way, but I am at a loss on how to fix this.
i would bet its in your thrust bearing,does the mill still have the original lead srews and thrust bearings,they have alot of play when you change directions,can you show pictures?might help alot
