They have a nice selection and pretty informative website, but no
prices. You need to 'get a quote' so I called and talked to a rep, and
felt that they are not a small/hobbyist customer oriented. The guy was
nice but it was clear that they don't care for the low cost/entry
level market.

I did find some interesting things: he confirmed what we knew already,
that the most popular and therefore best value ball screw size is 5/8.
Another useful information was that there are three manufacturing
classes, in order of increasing accuracy and price. Standard rolled
thread is accurate to 0.004in/ft; precision rolled good to 0.001/ft,
and ground thread better than 0.5mil/ft
