Alwais nice to watch someone work. And I think this machine is spectacular.

Thanks Rusty. While it was an absolute bastard to work on (overhaul) it has proven to be a pleasure to use. Ken

Great job Ken . Good forward thinking leaving the bit to clean up & not machine away the corner rad . I remember you mentioning the spindle expansion in an earlier video , something to be very wary off . Warm one here today 34 C , 93 F ! Cheers 👍

Theres take up mechanisms in the nuts so you can climb and conventional mill.
Most horizontal borers you can frame mill as they have in their manual.

What brand of face mill are you using?

[@hmw-ms3tx]

Hello Tom. It's a Sandvik R245 facemill. My favourite type by far. Ken
