    Well this isn't going to work this is what's good about doing it this way for me I can visualise the problems before I start making parts.

    So I have decided to mock up some SCVUU Bearing Blocks see if I can get them a litte tighter to the Ballscrew Nut will also need to move rails and ballscrew back so I have more room for the Nut brackets/housings.

    You will also see on the picture that I have a number of lines etc these are all axis's and planes used for lining everything up.

    So if you have something round like a Rail and you want to put it through a hole first of all you put an axis though the Rail and then one through the hole then you align those two axis's with a constraint seems easy and it is after the boys on the Alibre forum help you out

    Yep. Drawing up your design first is an excellent way to go. It helped me keep things as tight as possible.

    your ballscrew nut has a nipple for oil , dont forget to allow access to it a 14mm hole in top should be enough

    Default Alibre tutorials

    I had great aspirations of drawing my next build with Alibre, but my trial has expired by the time I got through the tutorials, and I always seem to pick some thing difficult to draw and just end up getting frustrated with it. It was the same when I was learning Aspire but the video tutorials were my savior.
    Just wondering if any Alibre users shelled out the extra for the video tut's and if it helped. I wish these things had an intensive course you could do for a couple of days with someone who can answer all your questions as you go.
    I'd be totally screwed without forums.

    I dont have the tutes as yet xmas has swallowed a lot of $$ this year normally I just work through things but the end of this month I will have saved a few $ to get them as well.

    Do I think I need them well for the cost they cant hurt and I can use them as a reference.
