Carve,
Initially only we will be carrying the mounts, but you can order the nuts from either of us. We have about 500 currently in stock in anticipation of the flood
Best regards,

Thanks for the confirmation. It would be 11 pounds plus the weight of the vertically moving part of the Z assembly. Something around 15 pounds hopefully. I previously figured that I could use two of your round flange nuts, screw the flanges against each other, drill holes through both flanges and bolt them together to get one longer nut with a flange that I can cut to shape as needed. I may still do it that way for this router and use these new ones or your original ones for any future machines with lighter routers. I like the 90 degree aluminum mount arrangement. I've been doing it by cutting the round flange and mounting the nut to a piece of steel angle.Originally Posted by dumpster
CarveOne: The 11 pound router shouldn't be a problem for a single leadnut, although using 2 leadnuts back to back will obviously make it stronger. The nuts can't be rotated in the mount since they screw in and have the added security of the jamb nut to lock them in. To get 2 leadnuts lined up properly, you'd need to be able to shim between them to get the correct distance. A pair of slots in the mounting plate would allow you to adjust one of the mounts in either direction.
BTW, my machine isn't miles long either, I had to make 2 passes!

Will you and Ahren both be selling these new ones or just Ahren?
edit: These will have some backlash. Get ready for the flood of orders.

Sounds good. I would go bonkers making 500 of any one thing. Glad somebody can do it.Carve,

Lou,
Yes, Fine Line uses our ACME nuts so these will work for their machines as well.
Best regards,

Just when you think you have collected all of the parts for a new build....
Does that mean that Tim will soon produce the nuts in single start configuation? I would really like to get one of them! (actually 2 so I'll have a spare)
Don Frambach
I just knew that had to be Tim's machine.Yeah, that would take some of the pain out of it for sure Gerry.

Ahren,
Great to see these. Are they a simple swap for your other nuts or are they taller/shorter?
