Hi
I have a TST 8" Super Spacer that I got with the milling machine I bought 20 years ago. The surprise is that once the index plates are in it indexs from the slots in the index plate and not from the master slots iin the fixed plate at the back (pictured below)
Here you can see the index pin in the master slot
But when I put the indexing plate in it doesn't allow the index pin to fully seat into the master slot. I find this odd because I always assumed that all the previous ones I had used just blanked out the unused locations and were clearanced over the used slots.
Anyone else seen this before?
Thanks
Jim
