Is that X axis ballscrew mount going to fit under the table? Looks huge compared to the one I made and it barely clears.

A lot more like the one from Pro Cut CNC. Even with the nut cut down, the clearance is minimal.

PM-25MV CNC Mill Conversion Kit

Now Available! The PM-25MV CNC Mill is one of the most popular hobby mills out there. So we decided that it needed a conversion kit that would out perform the kits that are available today, By adding Double Ballnuts to our ball screws we have doubled the accuracy to the kits that are now...
