Weren't you the one sliding off a roof?

@Aukai I'm half way through building a riser for my PM935 type mill - the X handle is below my belly button! It is being made from some left over 4"X8" .177 wall tubing I had hanging around. It will be 11" tall when completed.

When I dig it out again I'll post a projects page and notify you by posting here. That will be a while, I'm rebuilding 3 machines at present.

No but I did go 35 mph on a toboggan with two of my friends, hit a jump, get 10 feet of vertical air and landing 40 feet after the jump which is probably the same if not worse

For your entertainment, here's what a friend of mine did, using 4X4 .177 wall tubing and 1.5" high riser feet:



it adds about 6" to the hight of the mill, which suits his 5'8" frame.

Wood blocks have been working very well for me. It also makes it quite easy to move the machines around with a pallet jack:

I still have the hardwood pallet my machine was on I can use some of that, and I was given 6" x 6" square tubing 1/4" wall, I had to pay shipping though.
