Dividing Head

[Roy Norris]

Will the table of the IH Mill handle a 145 lb dividing head?

I spoke with Aaron today.

He said the IH mill table will handle the dividing head just fine as long as it isn't mounted too far out on the table. Since I will be milling gears mounted on a face plate near the centerline of the mill, there should be no problem.

I bought the Tiwanese Universal dividing head offered by MSC and others. Its a big muther with 10" swing and will cover all divisions from 2 through 1000.

145 lbs, yep that's the big muther
