X2 X axis table stop

(1/2) > >>

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?

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

There are some permanent (as opposed to temporary clamp-on) X and Y stops shown here, Chuck:

They are on an X1, but the general design would probably work just as well on an X2.

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
