The Metal Lathe Gingery Pdf Files

MillDrill with Stand Grizzly Industrial. I bought this mill nearly a year ago. I was pleasantly surprised with how big and beefy it was in person. I purchased the power feed attachment at the same time and that was a very easy install. It has been a great accessory to have for longitudinal feed. Ive cut aluminum, 1. L1. 4 Steel, and hardened tool stool on this mill. I dont agree with the previous reviewer who said it would only cut aluminum. I havent found that to be the case.

I routinely take. Also, in the specs it says the mill capacity is 34 end mill. Id Works Datacard Serial Number Crack here. However, I have a 1 end mill that Ive used and again, no issues. Its really about how careful and caring you are about your machine and your tools. I am overall very happy with this mill. However, there is one problem that caused me at least a months worth of headache, and because of this, I took off one star. If I had known about this issue or been more perceptive, I might have either gone with a different model, or one that already had a DRO installed on it. So, the issue is with installing a DRO onto this mill yourself. Installing a scale and read head for the longitudinal feed is stupid easy. Plenty of space and no real extra fabricating needs to be done to attach that portion of the DRO to the back side of the table. Where the issue lies is with the Y axis front to back. Because the base of the mill is not flat, it is a NIGHTMARE. I tell you, to attach the scale and read head for this axis. Let me save everyone some time and calculating. The angle on the side of the base is approximately 3. You dont need it down to minutes take my word for it. So, you cant just put the scale directly onto the side of the base and get to going. I had to take some aluminum square stock and layout a 3. I then drilled and tapped, attaching it to the side of the base. This allowed the scale to be attached and dialed in perfectly squareparallel. The next horror is trying to find a spot to attach the read head. The issue is that the only space that I found acceptable, personally where you could begin to think about attaching some type of bracket for the read head is directly under the table, above the base, on a 7 long strip. This little bitty strip is just that. While it is 7 long, it is only 38 thick. So, I went out and found some 38 wide x 12 thick x 2. I essentially had to create a box and the arms extending away from the table had to be long enough that when I finally attached the bracket that the read head would be attached to, that it had a correct amount of spacing to not rub the scale as the read head moved with the movement of the table. I also added a middle bracing piece that was also drilled and tapped into the one piece attached to that little 7 strip under the table. Because I had to create those 3. I attached it to the left side of the table, so think of it this way read head all the way to the left, then the scale, then the standoffs, and then the side of the mill. It is rigid and has worked, but I was pretty frustrated and annoyed with how involved it became just to attach the Y axis, all because the base was angled. MORAL OF THE STORY Get the G0. DRO already on it. Its a different number than the 0. DRO already installed. Or dont, and have fun engineering something for the Y axis. There are others ways it couldve been attached, but for me, this is the first way to do it that popped into my head and its what I went with. And before you waste your time I did. Probably 4 or 5 hours over a two week period, there is absolutely nothing on You. Tube or a forum or on the interwebs where someone installs a DRO on the G0. There are a few DRO video installs on You. Tube for the G0. 70. Gaging type DRO system. And thats completely different than a real DRO package not putting down the i. Gaging type DRO system at all, but for a lack of better description, real is what Im going with.
