Hi guys,
I've been registered here for a while but just not getting around to posting. I received my mill and lathe a couple of weeks ago. They are not moved into position yet, but I'm hoping I can have that done soon. I've tried to do some searching through the forums here to answer the questions I have but right now I'm wanting to know what leveling mounts you guys recommend. I've heard TeCo a lot, but I'm not sure which specific ones to purchase. I don't have a lot of accessory tools right now, such as thread pitch gages, so I don't know what thread pattern the holes in the base are. I assume they are metric, something like 12mm a 2.0mm thread pitch?
I also briefly spoke with Mark about his control kits and proximity sensors. Is there anything else you guys would recommend besides the lathe v-belt and what I've already mentioned? I'm sure I'll be back to ask for advice on moving the mill off of the pallet and into the house. I'm a bachelor so I can put this stuff inside, which is going to be wonderful, or at least I hope so.
