On a side note, I just finished listening to Walter Isaacson's biography on
Leonardo Da Vinci and wanted to inform you that you're in good company

we wrapped the ball screw and nut with plastic - dad went outside and
ground it with an angle grinder. Then finished it up on the belt sander.
He took a couple breaks mainly so it didn't get too hot. (it barely got
hot to the touch.)
We had thought about milling out the slot - but didn't want to
