Renegade Prints (build Has Begun)

The Mike side (fixed) is still .617. Fitting the new Ground SS rods brought the other side to .618 and that is where it will stay.

Came FedEx. Weighs 65.45 lbs. I haven't machined anything tis big in years. Gonna be a trip. Need to call my buddy Tim, up the street. My 8520 only has a 6X24 table., he has a huge Bridgeport.

I was kinda wondering how you were going to do this on the 8520. Figured you'd come up with something to surprise me yet again. :)
 
Bring it on over Bill, that will fit right on my mill. BTW, it's about 60° and sunny here today. Have shop door open and working in the sunshine. :grin:
 
You ain't ready for this Bill. Since the longest continuous cut on the Base is 16.000 inches I will be using my 8520 mill to make it. I will build a sub-table 12 X 24 inches 1.5 inches thick fron plywood and bolt it to the table. It should be rigid enough to do the job. Stand-by for updates on this.

16", that's it? Piece of cake. ;)

(I've done 24" easily enough, but wouldn't want to do much more)
