The spider on the Y axis of my 4896 is worn (low time - couple hundred hours).

Has anyone tried a Helical style of coupling? any recommendations?

FYI - Spider had been modified (5/8" hole thru the center) to accommodate a design "feature" lead screw shaft too long or motor mount too short.

That much matrl. missing caused the spider to deform and wear.
