    t-slot covers

    I would like to get some t-slot covers for my mini mill - any recommendations? I mostly have a Kurt vice mounted so I'm looking for the individual snap in type.

    They sell the ones for Bridgeports so I assume they might have some for your Mini Mill.

    We used 5/8 x 1 cold drawn flat stock on our VF5.

    It fits the slot width perfectly and comes up just to the bottom of the chamfer on the slot, leaving no crevices for chips.
