    As for the purpose, I can only seeing it being useful for the mill. Once you convert to CNC, I can't think of a reason for it.
    i would hope that he hasn't been waiting all these 7 years for your response since he started this thread.

    LOL! I did it for Google searching purposes. It might help someone out. I was searching for what the purpose of it was for, and clues on how hard it was to remove. I wrestled with that thing for 45 minutes to get it out. I ruined a pair of vise grips (bent the jaws) and also sacrificed a chisel too. I'm going to be sore tomorrow. Hehe.
