Shaper table extension
#1
I've been exploring the limits of X and Y travel on my mill, surfacing a big chunk of 32mm scrapyardium plate that will (eventually) become an extended table for my shaper to enable mounting a dividing head in front of the ram. Decided to do this job while I had the vertical attachment mounted on the mill as the next stage of the toolholders I'm making will be done with the mill in horizontal mode.
The machined surface is 30" x 8 1/4". I want the full 9" width of this chunk of plate to pick up all four T-slots on the shaper; unfortunately I just couldn't get it far enough under the main casting of the vertical attachment to pick up the outside edge with my 62mm face mill. The limiting point can be seen in the third photo.
