I don't know if this is the right place to post this or not, if not let me know.
I have a cnc knee mill and the z axis ball screw connection to the quill was really loose so I took it apart and the block that fits into the keyway on the quill is loose, the block is made of bronze is there a reason I can't make a new one out of 4140. Is there a reason why they used bronze? Also is there an easier way to just fix the worn bronze?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks Mike
