    inexpensive X axis power feed for my mill

    Hello all,

    I just wanted to report that I completed a DIY X axis power feed for my RF mill, and it works pretty well! Pictures and descriptions at:

    Any questions please ask them here!

    Nice mod, Mate, well done

    Quite ingenious, if you ask me, and pretty simple, well worth the effort.

    Enjoy!
