 ...we might be able to take the 'out' out of 'outsourcing' - if we all share a strong cultural set of values, who exactly is 'out'? I think FIRST is a great way to do this, ... - Ian Mackenzie [more] |

Lead Screw or Linear Motion Source
Our team is looking for a Lead Screw that is atleast 45 inches long. We found one with Grainger, but with the complementary nut and shipping, it comes to almost $100. Anyone know a cheaper source for lead screws of this length?
Also, do y'all have any thoughts on other ways to achieve linear, powered motion? We've considered a linear slide with chain running the length of the slide, but this too is quite expensive. Any thoughts or help apppreciated! |
