@Dick; Ah, thanks good to know. I have two red ones to suit my lathe and mill.
Also sorry for diverting the thread. The tramming tool looks superb and it will be on my to-do llist as well. Nicely done! :nrocks:
@AdeV; OK, I will go for Goose-neck then. In Sweden they are (directly translated) called Swans-neck which is close enough.
@Blue-chip; I actually did something in that direction to fit a light onto my pillar tool :bugeye:,

Don't think that Bogstandard is participating in the forums these days. But I am grateful that he posted wonderful instructions.
Serious/Semi-serious metal working takes a couple things:
1. Experience on-the-job or through-the-hobby ------> 40 years and older
2. Ability to buy the necessary equipment ------> add 5-10 years
70 years and up means that many of these guru's have health/family issues.
So, it is with deep humility that I acknowledge Bog's as one of the genuine metal heads that I have been privileged to know in this life.
This works out to 60-70 years as the prime spot for these amazing guys

It amases me the different variations of these ZX45's.
There are many other sellers puting their name and colour on these machines.
Nice machines but limited on speed and durability.
If not R8 option they are MT3 100%. I looked round for 4 years trying to get an R8 spindle.
Yes have seen spindle lock as piccied and on the left side of head, even on same machine from Chester.
Likewise the beds are different, mine has 4 slots and could be longer with an actual 23 3/4" travel.
Also winder for elevation, some are on the right like mine. Having to use since my powered head gearbox packed up 6 months ago.
