I've been revisiting the ideas and pictures of Bojan's and Stive's design.
I noticed your Bartalised system drive is metal on metal on both axes?
I mean the motor shaft and the Alt and Az metal surfaces.
Something like Crayford focuser, am I right?

If so, how do you make enough tension/friction between two surfaces, enough not to slip?

cheers
