Brento, let me get an inventory done and I'll get back to you on the end mill.

That is very generous of you but i was just joking with you. No need to.

Well, turns out that's a good thing. I unloaded the box a while ago and started going through it. All the end mills with the wax on them were in one compartment of a drawer. I guess somebody decided they needed them worse than I do. I guess between the time I bought it and the time I loaded it, somebody pocketed a half-dozen new end mills.

I'm not happy about that, but there's still enough there that I came out alright. I haven't had that happen at an auction in years. Lesson learned...

Thats sad atleast they didnt take the instruments though and you got a nice kennedy box out of it so.

There's a dirt bag around every corner.

Ok, so I actually bought this the other day, but brought it home today.

Big shout out to Bob Korves, Ulma Doctor, and Rex Walters for their help relocating the mill. I sure am lucky to have such good people close enough to help me out!

I finally got my new compressor installed. Now on to the MaxLine system install.View attachment 241438

Just finished up the install last night. Very tough getting the lines to run straight even withe the roller tool. All & all It came out well and holds 90 psi I wanted.

That's a VERY nice looking source point assembly! Is this a "kit" available from MaxLine, or did you assemble it with parts from several suppliers?

 

[MonkMan]

Hi hman, I started with the basic kit shown above and added a few extras. The dual port at the mill station, various valves and fittings and the gauge. I found I needed more mounting clips. It worked out well, used all but 10 feet.

8foot vintage cast iron parallel.

Supposedly flat and straight. Will see.
If not, I've got work to do.....
But, it's not work. It is more practice.
