Talk about fun loading this in my truck off a loading dock, and then into my garage with only two pallets, a two wheeled handtruck, and a ratcheting strap. It's still mounted to the pallet, but mostly cleaned up, and the bearings were broken in last night.
Today I got in my basic tooling: 6" horizontal Phase II rotary table, some collets, 2 and 4 flute end mills, parallels, and a few other little things.
I'm still waiting on my 4" screwless vise, and clamping kit.
I have a few other things I need to pick up in the near future, fly cutters, slitting saws, boring kits, etc. I think this will give me a good start though.
In any case, does anyone have any recommendations for tweaks or setup beyond the basic clean, lube, backlash setup?
Also, is there a good online source for DOC and speed settings for different materials/cutters?
