Hi guys! This forum is full of cool builds. I love seeing what all you guys make and it's time for me to give something back. I've been working on a mini mill for a while. It's going to feature servos on the XYZ, a vector driven spindle, 8 tool toolchanger, full enclosure, coolant tank... Essentially, it will have all the features of a vmc but in a slightly smaller package with 400*250*250mm travels and a bt30 spindle.
The grey iron that will form the table has just been squared up and the corners have been chamfered. You can see the blank that will form the saddle in the background. I should upload a video of the machining process on youtube soon.
