The nut was worn too -- but not nearly as much as the leadscrew.


I have this too, but not much. I received the nut today and it does
fit the leadscrew. I machined it today to be of yoke shape instead of
square. I need to solder a little extra brass padding to complete the
shape, and drill/tap that for the screw. I hope to have a replacement
in a few days. I will not in any way disturb the original nut, so this
is all quite safe.
