Off the top of your head, does anybody know which screw to run in to tighten X,Y & Z? When it first arrived I remember that Y was too tight and I got that without problem. Tried X and ran it in about 1" one way and then 2" the other without noticing the difference. It would help to know the correct direction to tighten before I start again. The mill was pretty accurate out of the box, but now is showing signs it is way out of adjustment. I have time now to take apart or do what ever I have to do to get it accurate.

Does anybody have plans or a sketch for a Z power feed? I know it has been done and I have no wish to reinvent the wheel, so to speak?

Also, some where I read about counter balancing the head for nod. Don't know if I have that yet, but am curious if the would smooth Z travel up and down.

Love the mill. Now that it has gotten broken in, it's time to readjust everything.

Thanks Charles
