Default Re: Let The Build Begin!

Looking good.

The tech college I went to, we had a bridgeport mill with 1/2 turn backlash in x and y handles. One of the required projects was an internal square pocket milled to +-0.0002" and it had to be done on that mill. Lots of guys struggled with that one, but it is doable. You learn how to work around the backlash.
