My 6yr old mini mill has begun to bind when I move the table in the X direction. BUT, it's not binding at the ends like everyone else reports. Mine binds in the middle of the travel! About the only thing different between when it didn't and now is that I switched from a conventional vise to a screwless vise. I was thinking maybe I cranked down too hard on the hold downs and tweaked something but this didn't start right after the vise switch so that may be a red herring. I've removed the vise and the table still binds.
Given that all of the suggestions on things to check revolve around the opposite problem I'm wondering where I need to start looking, what to check, what to test.
