Hi This subject is an on going discussion across many forums the best way is to look at the very varied advice given by all means. Diagnoses are obtained by you asking questions of what do I require this machine to do and to what accuracy is required of the finished product. Is the machine capable of achieving the required results, if not then why not. Are the gibs-screws on X Y and Z travel properly adjusted if not the attend to this first. No point in tramming until everything has the minimum amount of play. Get this far and put the mill to work and gain experience in operating it and check the resulting work piece is it satisfactory or not. Keep asking questions of yourself and ask others for advice by supplying them with as much relevant information as possible about what you need to solve the problem. Good luck with your machining you have started on a rewarding hobby. Keep asking and posting as all "Mad Modders" take a keen interest in what is being done in the workshops of others and can supply a wealth of help and information. Eric |
