Re: Sliding axle tension system

In addition to using large screws, you can increase the width of your hexagonal puller so that it almost touches the two sliders. Such a configuration won't attempt to bend the screw; only shear it, and the screw should be able to handle that better. You probably won't be able to use a simple hex standoff for the puller any more, but you seem to be up for some machining.
