Just browsing through the threads to see what I can pickup and saw this thread:
http://www.hobby-machinist.com/show...-Things-You-Need-for-a-Lathe?highlight=things
as a new owner of a horizontal mill, what should the first things be that I shop for?
I have:
a dial indicator & base
6" digital caliper
set of drill bits
for attachments I have:
end mill bit (is that the correct name?)
and an arbor (sitting in the mill tray).. I think its for a slitting saw?
so far I am thinking:
set of parallels
drill chuck adapter
edge finder
thanks,
Roger
