I have a vertical mill and a very heavy Hartford Super Spacer index head accessory. I was looking for a way to make a shelf for it tonight and remembered that I salvaged a couple TV wall mounts (for the heavy tube type TVs) during a remodel job. They are rated at 140 lbs, and I shortened the lower arm by 6", so it can probably hold more than that now. My Index Super 55 had some unused electrical cover plates (1/8" metal), that I used for the mounting area on the mill (welded on a backer plates and mounting nuts) As you can see in the photo, I can swing the arm over the table and easily slide a heavy item on or off.
