Z power feed for 728VT

I adapted a knee mill power feed (PF-AL510S-Z) to the Z axis on the 728VT. I had to kick it back at an angle to miss the Z scale, but came out well and seem to work well.

Looks like a nice clean install!

I know it's an old post. I'm researching what to do to add a power feed to the z axis of this machine. This is really a clean install. I thought a fresh look might help or inspire anyone else looking to install one.

Thanks, I love it. I use it all the time. I'll see how hard it would be to replicate.

PM doesn't offer a power Z option for that machine?

I have never found one listed. The only thing I have found has been the priest tools lift motor. PM does have a link to it.
I don't know why they would not have one available.
