Now that the Z is powered ,, could it be used in say a boring operation instead of using the quill ?

Rob,
I haven't tried doing motorized boring but with the speed control I can go very slow which would allow this to work. I have a glass scale on my Z axis so I can monitor the depth. I'll have to try it out. Thanks.
