[QUOTE=Dr Not;530938]Well I have to say that this is one of the more interesting, and certainly information packed threads that I have read on CNC Zone.
Now I will pick my New IH Mill up tomorrow morning and I am expecting the ways to be ground as is advertised on the IH website. However, after reading some of the posts here it makes me wonder if ways that are ground are ready to begin work. If it is necessary to scrap the machine or lap the ways before even putting it into service. QUOTE]
New machines are much improved compared to my 8 year old machine and shouldn't require anything other than proper maintenance.
Enjoy,
