I am going to make a little adjustable device for a friend and I need to figure out the best or simplest joint in a threaded adjuster. I may need to make a quick drawing but maybe I can explain it good enough. Picture a bolt going through a nut that is welded onto a piece, but on the other end of the bolt, there is a square or rectangular piece with a hole in it connected (like a tie rod end) that can not turn when the bolt is turned or adjusted. What would be the best type of joint that would not allow any or minimal slop while allowing the end to float while the bolt was turned in or out. The end will be in a track or otherwise held from being allowed to turn.
Make sense?
