	I can't help you with a source for metal gears... but I can tell you I have stalled out the Grizzly mini-mill's motor several times (using a boring head)...

	Last September i bought the mini-mill from homier. I'd like to start working on bigger projects, so this mill no longer suits my needs. This is an R8 mill,...

	I'm about one hour north of Austin. Hopefully in the next week or two I can order some milling tools and start making little chips to drag around the house to...

	Alright tonight I ordered a 3 inch screwless vice, some mills and holders, and a dial indicator set up. By Thursday I should be throwing some chips....

	Hello, I've been considering Grizzly's 9x20 lathe and their mini-mill. I took a drive to their PA store to get a better idea of these two machines. While there...

	Mike, Not sure what exactly you mean by "india stone" woodcraft supply (www.woodcraft.com) has an assortment of sharpening tools. lee valley ...
1958		jjfear	Mar 4, 2003 11:14 pm
	Dave, I've never seen that machine before, but reading the catalog info, it really looks like an upscaled drill/mill that they sell on the same page, which is...

	If you have a waterbed go get a waterbed repair kit now before you start making any chips. I never needed one till I bought my mini-lathe. The first of 3...

	Isn't that basically the RF20? I can't figure what the z is all about, though. I've thought a lot about moving to the RF20 size mill, but the really short...

	India stone is an old, old abrasive - my grandfather's finishing stone for his cabinetmaking tools was an India stone. If you cannot find one at the links ...
1962		Ottokrauser	Mar 5, 2003 8:05 pm
	Does anyone have some pictures of how they mounted a DI for Z axis on a mini mill? Or a Digital Caliper for the same? I'm also interested in the X & Y axis for...
1963		jjfear	Mar 6, 2003 12:08 am
	Randy, Several people have made devices to hold DI's on the mill. In looking through the files and photos, I don't find them on this site. They are probably...

	Nope, but I'll try to describe two ways: 1. buy a 2" dial indicator and a magnetic base (e.g., Enco 625-0450) & let it attach itself to the top of the...
1965		Ottokrauser	Mar 6, 2003 6:41 pm
	Thanks for the input. Jim I see what you are talking about. Seems simple enough, except it appears the torsion bar will be in the way. I was thinking of either...
1966		ken_mays	Mar 6, 2003 7:28 pm
	Hi Randy, The problem, as I see it, with statically mounting the dial indicator is that it is never exactly where you need it much of the time. I do have...

	Welcome to the hobby! As a recent newcomer to the field myself, I put together a page a couple weeks ago describing the mill tooling and accessories I've...

	Jim, Simple question, simple answer. Does the work you do require cheap or expensive? Answer that question and you will know what to buy. HTH Jerry Fear...

1973		ken_mays	Mar 13, 2003 8:51 pm
	... Why is that? Do the mounting notches in the table not line up with the T-slots in the table? I was figuring on just bolting mine to a large angle plate,...
