PS
I always get metric screwed up, so I'm not sure if 400mm us 3" or 3'! JK but if your part is really long and you use a stop like we mentioned, take a few minutes to whip up a collar to slip over your stock so it doesn't droop in the spindle while you're trying to load the part against your solid stop. We had to use collars in our CNC Mori all the time on really long bars and occasionally on the manual stuff too~
