    Enco ZX45 build

    I just thought I'd post some pics of my Z axis in progress.

    It might be hard to see from the pics. There are 2 angular contact bearings opposite each other, sandwiching the aluminum. The nuts lock them in place.

    If you look hard at pic 4 you can see the AC bearing barely. Wow so many 45's going lately. It could turn into the flavor of the quarter if this momentum kepts up.
