Names help a lot. Thanks for sharing!

Now on to your post... Dude, you are on a roll. I haven't even had a chance to breathe and you are on to a new project  :clap: Very good! Can't wait to see what you do with it. I had thought about doing a power feed on mine... but the CNC conversion won out. I am gather the parts needed on a shoe string budget.

If there is anything I can help with let me know. I have a few odds and ends laying about.

Tomorrow I have to grind my new magnetic chuck so I can get the surface grinder going...that thing needs to pay for itself. 

My next project after that will be to machine a dovetail gib fixture so I can make new ali-bronze gibs for my lathe and mill. All that cheap Chinese steel (iron, butter, whatever it is) has GOT to go.  :dremel:
