Last week I scored a Harbor Freight 40939, mini-knee mill which had been partially converted to CNC by replacing the lead screws for x and y axes with ball screws. In order to move it into my shop I want to remove the table from the knee to save weight. The head was removed when I got it. Here I have it strapped to the loader to move it.
Unfortunately I screwed out the lead screw and now I have a bunch of small balls in a cluster. It was one of those "oh no!" moments.
How do I safely separate and remove the tables?
