http://www.roymech.co.uk/Useful_Tables/Screws/Hex_Screws.htm and everything else I've checked says that M8 nuts are 13mm face-to-face, but metric.scad has them listed as 14mm. this causes the nut traps in the X-ends to be too large, giving backlash on Z.

Just printed an X idler and this size is indeed incorrect.
