Simple linear slide design

[Jan]

ok, took some time, but here it my take on it

[Jan]

need to read up on photo attach, i guess

[noid]

here is a file for you

[Jan]

ok, that's kinda small
I would like some help with the PROPER method to send a screen capture

[mvaughn]

Instead of saving it as a .bmp file, save it as a .jpg with a max size of 700 pixels wide. The upload it again to the forum.


or you can email me the full size image and I'll format it and upload it here.

Try this one

This one is of the changes I spoke of earlier

Is the outside bearing free floating in a pocket with set screws used to tension it.

[noid]

In my design I used a slot or pocket. But maybe for ease and simplicity on could use a shoulder bolt and thread the bearing shaft. I'll work on this idea and post it later.

I have it all re-designed with the flat bar, in fact I got the whole machine done, I'm post some pics tonight. I'm going to re-model it in Alibre and see how well I can do with it. This design is a light weight application, this is for my laser machine. The whole machine is belt driven now instead of servo.
