Spherical joint for the drives
Hi....some delay on the project,but finally the drives going to be complete.
i take four spherical (polymer) joints from igus.de and i open carefully the hole from 3mm to 5 mm(the drives are 5mm on the back). those come in stiff tolerance,and get water tight for sure.

Carbon supports for the drives
Because no body here in greece that have a cnc router,like to work with carbon....i find a solution that is very good in tolerances...i worh a lot with laser cut in my own business,and i find pretty good,to make my drawings for my projects,then to cut them in d.c.p soft metal....and then screwed on the carbon plate,and then "dremel it"
works great!!!!
