I am not even sure how to describe this but I will try anyway. I saw a cool toy many years ago (decade ago?) and I remember that they wanted way too much money for a few hundred dollars in steel and

Bevel gears would work, but you might also be thinking of a worm to turn a straight gear. http://auto.howstuffworks.com/gear5.htm http://www.atmsite.org/contrib/JSAPP/wormgear/wormgear.html

Just to amplify on this a bit. Ball screws are inordinately expensive new (depending upon diameter, over $100/ft). The reason for this is that their most typical use is in precision machining and pos

If you're moving a thousand pounds that's sitting on castors, all-thread can be strong enough. It's not particularly good steel, but it's not pot-metal either. The acme threads are superior for load

Mike, again, it's not stealling if he didn't patent it. And if he did, if you are improving the design its still not steeling. And as far as I know, as long as you make it for your personal use, pate

That's fair use, and it applies to copyrights, not patents. It's also a very volatile subject as of late. There are no concrete rules on it. From what I understand it is based in case law. Tim <>--<>
