Building a milling machine

<< < (6/44) > >>

NormanV:
It's been a good day today, the enforced delay due to the weather has given me time to plan the next stages which meant that I was working efficiently and got far more done that I had anticipated.
Firstly I cast the second of the top body sections and after fettling I got them bolted together.

NormanV:
I then mounted the top section onto the bottom and bolted them together.

NormanV:
I then fitted the top casting to the main frame and bolted that into place.
So far none of the assembly has been precision work, an angle grinder and a drill is all I've needed. The next part is to fit the front, this has to be done accurately to ensure that the front is at right angles to the top tube.

Thanks for posting, I'm looking forward to seeing where this is going!

Regards, Matthew
