I'm pretty sure it's an acme 1/2" 2 start 8 thread, but I'm not sure. It is on an x/y table I bought off of ebay.
I want to be able to order an anti-backlash nut from: http://dumpstercnc.com/leadnuts_acme.html

Thank you, Thank you!

37 views and no answer, is this a stupid question or something?

I agree with you.
You should be able to see the 2 starts from the end and I think I see that. I count 8 threads on your ruler. Looks close to 1/2" on you ruler also.
