i did some calculations today and realized i am not to far off from being able to buy a mill , so its time to do some real thinking and decide exactly what mill i want .
i have decided that the pm25mv / grizzlyg0704 size mill is what i want . the pm mill has a few features such as the better brush-less motor and belt drive that to me seem to make it well worth the extra money over the grizzly . plus the pm warehouse/store is close enough i could pick it up any maybe save a few bucks on freight .
but there is one thing grizzly offers that is very attractive to me ... a ready made power feed for the table .
i have looked around a bit and i cant find anything on adding a power feed to the pm machine ... excepting the cnc conversions of course .
i dont see any type of cnc conversion in my future ... but i sure can see a power feed down the road .
what are feasible options for adding the power feed to the pm25 ... will the grizzly unit adapt without to much hassle ,.. or is there maybe other alternatives out there for a power feed .
