Lazy is good. Thats why the spaceship is not painted because its not finished yet!

I was looking at belts the other day and saw that some were not good for precision motion and had backlash but my mind is a seive so I've forgotten everyyhing except that a 10:1 reduction ends up with a 445mm pulley!

I also managed to straighten the Z axis leadscrew to within 0.02 mm in the centre, it is 200mm long and was around .75mm out originally so I am very happy with that. It is amazing what you can do with some time, some blocks of wood and a hammer...

I bought from him several times, everything is perfectly good with him, delivery, price, quality, all as it should be.
And this is by far the cheapest reduction set on the net.
