    X2 mini mill head dimensions

    I am working on a new project and am thinking about using an X2 head that can be purchased from Little Machine Shop. What I need to know are the dimensions of the head. I have attached a picture of the dimensions I need which are as follows.

    A - Width of head casting
    B - Height of Head Casting
    C - Depth of head casting
    D - Distance from rear of casting to spindle centerline

    EDIT - I would also like the distance the spindle nose protrudes below the bottom of the casting.

    I don't need exact measurements. Just a tape measure accuracy is good enough for what I need right now.

    Thanks in advance.

    Thanks.

    Would anyone have the other 2 dimensions?

    D - Distance from rear of casting to spindle centerline

    E - distance the spindle nose protrudes below the bottom of the casting.

    Thanks again.

    Re: X2 mini mill head dimensions

    I was going to make a mill with a head like that too. I bought a mini lathe head off eBay. Since buying it, I have since been given a different headstock assembly. If you could use a MT3 spindle headstock I can make you a good deal on it.
