Re: Need help from turret experts

In our design this year we used Ultra-High Molecular Weight Polyethylene (UHMW) Disk sandwiched between two 3X3 aluminium box, with a sproket welded to the box and a bolt going tru all to keep it centered. The UHMW provided a very low amount of friction, making it very easy to turn. I will post a pic later to show it a bit more clearly
