The interesting challenge with building a support system for the leadscrew is that, because the leadscrew does not stay stationary as the ball holder is raised, the support system would have to be mounted only to the motor and the leadscrew itself. It might make a good off-season project.

Right, it wasn't intended to. Like I said above, I added this in hopes that it would absorb some of the vibration and noise, not to make the system perfect.
