Redesigning a “One Size Fits None” Mill Horizontal Power Feed for a Far Superior Install on a PM-728

- I am always trying to "build a better mousetrap" and my new mill is no exception. I have spent the last couple months making upgrades. The most recent upgrade was to take the "one size fits none" power feed I purchased for my DIY install and install in on the new mill. This power feed has a lot of design shortcomings so I redesigned the mounting bracket for a solid connection that does not limit my bed.
Thanks for the idea to mount the power feed. I own that same mill.
My pleasure
Very nicely done! Food for thought, drilling/tapping 1-2 hole in the top of the adapter bracket would allow for some nice work stops if needed.
That's a great idea!
I installed that same one on my smaller PM mill. Love it, no problems 4+ years!
It's a good little unit. I used it for a couple years on my DIY mill and I am sure it will serve me well on this machine.
👍👍😎👍👍 - yep, THIS is why I watch this channel...... for the problem solving experiences. Thank you 🙏🙏
It’s like my only thing to offer 😂 can I weld yes are my welds gorgeous like a true welder no. can I run late and mill? Absolutely are the parts I make accurate down to .002” not usually, but if there’s a problem to solve, a better mouse trap to build or a part that needs to be installed in something that it was never intended to be installed on I’m your man! 😂😁🤣
Good job
Thanks
A proper bolt pattern is far superior to welding
Thank you for your comment
