I am currently making some new X ends for my Sells Mendel using trapezoidal threaded lead screws, I have made the nuts for myself in a traditional fashion by machining and tapping the threads. However I started thinking about if the nuts could be printed, turns out they can but I always have trouble cleaning the threads. This is no problem if you have a tap but trapezoidal taps are expensive.
This thing is intended to suggest a method that you can produce your own Ghetto reamers to clean out
