| Chuck in E. TN:
I would like to make a couple of clamp on table stops for the X axis of my X2 mill. Anyone made these and have a drawing or pic to share? Chuck in E. TN |

Hi here's some I made for my mill (a Chester Conquest ). they might give you some ideas. Roy |

There are some permanent (as opposed to temporary clamp-on) X and Y stops shown here, Chuck: http://mikesworkshop.weebly.com/mill-table-stops-and-locks.html . They are on an X1, but the general design would probably work just as well on an X2. Andy |
| Chuck in E. TN:
Thanks, Roy, and Andy for your replies. I like the simplicity of Roy's design. I will study both. Roy, did you add a brass point to the locking bolt, or just a push piece? Chuck in E. TN |
| wheeltapper:
Hi the brass point is inserted into the end of the bolt. these stops were a quick and dirty fix for a particular purpose but they have got certain limitations. Roy |
