    Update...
    The lead screws I have chosen are from Roton.com .375 inch (9.525mm) x 1.0 inch (25.4mm) lead for x and y with anti-backlash nuts. The z axis will be .375 inch (9.525 mm) x .05 inch (1.27 mm) lead with regular acme nuts. I have to machine the ends. I have the frame built...it is beautiful! I have a dual (Bowden style) extruder designed for ABS and HIPS and dual custom hotends. The dual extruder/hotend setup will allow me to print HIPS supports and dissolve in Limonene leaving only the ABS model. I believe the prints will be very high quality with this setup. I have to test it...and can't wait! Thanks again.

    So I got my reprinted parts and I installed everything. My y-carriage doesn't hop anymore. also put in new bearings. My problem now is the stage it came with (wood) isn't flat. It's waviness shows up in my print quality. What are you guys using for stages?

    @carl i took 1.75mm, and to support the bearing, just a piece of 5mm diameter rod (old NEMA17 recycled).
    @ronniebelmar I'm sorry, I do not understand the question. (I recall I do not speak English) can you rephrase? thank you.

    what is the problem with this hole? you need to take a M3x40 and cut a good length. It is necessary that the screw, once clamped to the max, does not block the movement of the lever. If I reduce the thickness, I fear it is too brittle.

    Yesss, sorry, I got the E3D. I'm really busy right now (I'm trying to set up my small business). I started designing a new extruder, but I'm not happy ... I'll do my best, but I guarantee nothing. Otherwise I'll adapt a wade greg's like: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:291980 or http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:291291.

    Yes, it is 410.2mm to be very accurate (I am Swiss ^ ^) but do not worry about it, as long as the distance between the Z-axis are the same on top and bottom.

    Hi Carl, sorry for you. :banghead:

    Normally no force is required to slide the nut in the x-ends. If you can change the SKP and enlarge the hole a bit. Or it must file down a bit.

    That said if it breaks due to excessive force, this is normal, the part at this point is small. But if the layers split, it is surely the extrusion temperature too low, or the fan blowing too hard on the print.

    Keep me informed.

    Peace.

    yes i know... it was my 300mm x 300mm heatbed is why it did not work.. that mosfet on RAMPS for the heated bed is only rated at around 11A, so i am guessing the silicone heated bed blew the RAMPS up :blackeye: :banghead: :(
