No Doubt Matty is Top shelf ...
Always time to work on sumthin else ... well all my collets now fit after speeding another hour or so polishing out burs/ rechasing threads . Now you are able to thread in w/ draw bar and thumb... and push collet up in spindle with ease . I still have to put back keyway and adjust tho... hopefully that's not another round of fixin the collet set.
Next thing to figure out is Spindle stroke dial calibrate / readjust (off by +.100) this is for setting an exact stop for z depth on quill.for some reason using the scale at zero its ahead +.100
perhaps if I take apart I can adjust that . anyone know on the 932 Pdf model if that can be done ?
whats id really like is to use gauge blocks with a quill stop however not going to be able to do with this design. maybe ill add a small one for 1" and less .
Also id like some ideas and or comments . . As there is no dial on the Z column depth. First anyone know the pitch of lead screw /? and if anyone had made a dial for it . Or is everyone a get a DRO for the Z column . I do plan on putting one on all axis . but still nice to have a manual dial as well. Thanks for any ideas.
