I took all my measurements from an other split nut. and cut to a size the block I'd be using. I marked out and drilled the piece with a 11 mm Brad point bit. Then I put in vise and proceeded to tap the ACME thread. Going back and forth continually cleaning it out. Once I completed that I cut the block in 2 pieces on the scroll saw. I then marked the hole for the thumb screw and drilled with a 6.5 mm drill bit. Tapping then with a 5/16 course thread tap. During the drilling process I used the Rocker pen vise. To trim the Blocks to fit I used the Rockler Small Parts Jig to hold the block, and save the fingers. Overall I am super happy I took the time to make some and they fit perfect. there is NO play in that carriage now. Not sure how long they will last, but may make some with Delrin at some point too. See photos attached.
