I got a new mill this week nothing special its a https://littlemachineshop.com/products/product_view.php?ProductID=4700&category=1387807683
Ive heard I need prep the dovetails so they last longer, anybody know what I need to do??
Also I got some collets (https://littlemachineshop.com/products/product_view.php?ProductID=1752&category=874479994) and they are real pain to change, I have to unscrew the drawbar a little bit, then hit the top of the draw bar with punch and rubber mallet, doesn't seem right to do it this way. Is there a better way of doing it ??
Anything tips and tricks I might need to know using a new ??
Thanks
