Restoration of my Schaublin SV52 toolroom milling machine

just for the sake of being correct, but you already know of course:

1/100mm = 4/10.000 (not 4/1.000 as I wrote when I referred to mesurements made)
according to my mentor Ricahrd (King) the industry standard is 5/10.000 pr. foot, so this is what I am shooting for

This is very impressive work! I wish I had half your skills. Every time you ad a video i bring out the popcorn! you should make a complete video with pictures, comments and videos starting with the picture where i tricked you into buying this behemoth :whiteflag:
 
A little hastily made, but I was impatient and couldn't resist the temptation of doing some measurements on the knee up/down the column. Went OK I think.. less than 1/100mm deviation on +30cm travel (less than half a thou on 1 foot) as far as I could see. The hold-down blocks are not yet modified, so the gap, apprx. 6-8 thou on the left side makes the knee rock a bit. This will be OK when I have milled, scraped and fitted them permanently
