Want to replace the nut only for the Z axis (knee) on my mill. Pretty sure the screw is still good, I was a dumbass and ran the knee hard into the bottom with an electric drill "power feed". Was only about 5 thou before that.

Checked Mcmaster and Googled quite a bit. I see 7/8 x 6 but not 10 TPI.

I know i could make one but was hoping to avoid that.

Any ideas?

Considering the time you're using to look for one probably easier, faster and cheaper to make one. You'll also get what you want.

Google Green Bay Manufacturing. If they don't have it no one does. Who made your mill, no parts available?
