This was probably one of the dumber things I've done.
I had a little bit of galling on inside of the MT3 taper in my mini mill's spindle, so I bought a finishing MT3 reamer to clean it up. However, I got a little too rambunctious and ended up knocking the top of the taper 0.0005" out of alignment. It's not a huge amount, but it's amplified the further the tool is from the spindle. *sigh*
I've already ordered a new spindle from Grizzly, but it's pretty much the hardest part to replace on the mini mill.
