    Adjustment block ?

    I’m building my first CNC machine.

    I’m placing a 5/8” steel rod through a ¾” plywood hole.

    I need some kind of Adjustment block on the other end that has screws in it
    so I can adjust the level of the rod. It would be a square block with 3
    or 4 screws used to tighten and center the rod.

    Here's an example.

    I dont want to build this part, I want to purchase it.

    Does anyone know where I can get these kind of parts ?


    Thanks,

    I think you're cutting the adjustment a bit tight. I used t-nuts on my adjusters so had about 1/2" around my pipes, but even without them I'd advise at least 3/8" around your pipe.
