Discussion History

Base and Column

Assembly

The single cast iron base and column that form the spine of the machine. The column carries the dovetail ways the knee rides on, and its mass damps vibration during cutting. This is the classic turret-mill structure. A full specification article for this item is being written. Meanwhile its bill of materials and connections are below.
