Like I found out is keep simple.
I have had Rotary Table that two to put on mill. That is a pain and takes time to make a simple job.
?
If only? you need for a 5 min job and takes 45 minutes to change to table and back to the vise. It make twice if really need to ise the Rotary table.?
?
This small I chuck? up in the mill vise in a minute use small 4 jaw chuck to hold part and 10 minutes later I have a finished part.?
?
Setting up for both the mill and mini lathe There times I using the mill and need to do a quick and the mini lathe is not being used.??
?
Am also setting up for drilling for same reason.??
?
