I'm making a stand for my (not yet arrived) PM30MV.
https://www.hobby-machinist.com/threads/pm30-milling-machine-stand.67755/
I'm guessing I might need to adjust to the Y axis drive assembly, but I'm not sure if I can just set it and forget it before I mount it to the table.
My questions are:
Should I make a cutout on the table so I can access the bottom of the mill?
Can I access the parts of the Y axis that I need from the top somehow?
If I need to access it, is it something I need to be able to visually see, or will it suffice to just reach my hand underneath and feel the parts that I need to manipulate?
Thanks!
A side rant, despite being quoted 4-6 weeks, it looks like PM added on at least another 6 weeks to the wait time. That's pretty concerning on if/when I will actually get this mill. These sort of yield delays often lead to compromises in order to get things out the door.
