Default My new mill

Hi..Heres a few pics of my latest project....
It finaly done its fisrt cuts...not to bad ..just a bit of
shimming under the table to get it right...
now the run out is just under .1

the head not only rotates but can slide foward
& aft.....

But I think I really need to build another table
with longer slides....

Great work Pete. Did you build this from scratch or start with a ready built?

Keep posting pics of your machines, they give me inspiration and ideas for my own projects, by the way, Thanks for posting the pics of your setup for drilling/ milling your muzzle brakes a while back. I built my own version and it worked out pretty fair....

Hey thats pretty dam kool.......

To be honest I have been looking for another hobby to get into...
Air guns are a bit limiting in what yer can do with them...thats why I built
the mill...Going to build a PCP from scratch....
air guns..been there done that....Whats next...I think I get more/as much
fun from playing around with them as much as shooting them..In fact I don't
really shoot at home anymore other than testing/siteing in....
I do like to kill cute furry critters with them though....rabbits...
