Those old hard drive magnets are quite useful aren't they? Thumbsup

I have a couple in my lathe's headstock and apron as well for that very reason.

This is an outstanding thread on so many levels. Thanks for putting in so much work into sharing it with us Henry. Put it all in print and you would have an excellent service manual for that mill. Smiley-eatdrink004
