Re: Re: [TANKS] gun elevation motor?
if the printed nut were to fit and work properly i'd consider casting some. as to their life, i'd think that with proper greasing it should last for a long time as it's not like there's a lot of weight bearing down on it  chris  In a message dated 4/6/2017 12:38:48 PM Eastern Standard Time, panthergol...@gmail.com writes:  I could make you a drawing if you gave me the thread pitch and desired profile.
