Dowels, hrm, that sounds like a good idea. I figure I'll try 10mm or so long dowels under the set screws. Maybe spot face the gibs to clean up the dings the...
Today I set about fixing a problem with my mill's head: the spindle isn't exactly parallel with the Z ways. This is an issue that has caused me errors due to...
I'll try to get some pictures posted soon, but in a nutshell, here's what I did: Refit all 3 slides with tapered gibs. All slides can be pushed from one end of...

I just returned form a road trip to the Springfield MO Grizzly store. If anyone here has the chance to go they won't be disappointed. The metal working display...
Hi Mini mill Guys! I now have had my Griz mill for a little over a month and am very impressed. I have done some really nice flats on it, nice and smooth. But,...

Hi, I've had a Homier mini-mill for a few months now, and so far I'm loving it. For my first real "project", I'm mounting a 1" Dial Indicator on the Z-axis. I...

I have the Griz Mill and somewhere I read a post about extending the head travel to bring it closer to the table like the piston types did. I can't find it...
... Not the original, but you take the attach point to the head and move it up about an inch. I did this when making a tool post for the lathe, (Think that's...

I mounted my dro on the rear of the table and had every intention of adding a power feed on that end of the mill, so I let the scale overhang be on the right...
Barry, can you reset the parameters such than new members have to be pre-approved or moderated before posting to the group?..you could at least screen out the...
The problem I'm going to have is with the mounting of the y-axis scale. It's mounted below on the left. I went to the Sieg website and asked the question as...
I am a little reluctant to admit that my powerfeed is a cordless Porter Cable drill and a 9/16 socket / universal joint. It fits on the stock metric nut a bit...
