These slides are designed for a mini Kossel printer, inspired by Bill Plemmons' design (http://www.flickr.com/photos/92732833@N04/9940136066/). The model uses the fillets library from OpenSCAD (https://github.com/StephS/i2_xends/blob/master/inc/fillets.scad). I print them without the nylon screws but kept the holes for it. Printing requires a well-tuned printer due to tight tolerances. To improve performance, manually "burn-in" the slider by increasing friction and using gcode at speeds from 50mm/s to 400mm/s in Cartesian mode. I don't use 3mm nylon screws as they cause squeaking; my tests have reached over 600mm/s (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DABFczCJ2QI). Time will determine their viability.
