Comment on Plastic linear bearings, LMXUU type

Igus has tubs of high quality plastic linear bearings and selection guides, etc. I’ve also got versions they didn’t have in their site by talking to a rep, like tighter tolerance for a specific bearing. Used them across many mechanism and products I’ve designed.

Right. I’m sort of a cheapass so I ordered them via Aliexpress. Next time I will get the proper ones.
I did however find out that the metal bearings, despite the play in them, did not cause the resonances. Ever since I rebuilt the printer to a CoreXY machine some speeds were off-limits. Which is fine I guess but mildly annoying and I want to get it solved at some point.
