Hi
I too own a Einhell mini mill
i have done the belt-drive myselft, not too hard to do, i based my desing in the LMS common design
but have to move the circuit box a little to make room for the bottom plate, doing this there is no more room for the torsion spring arm so I done the air spring...

I have doing some measuring with my chinese 1-2-3 block, and the two are working great, the 50-75 one was already calibrated, measure in the 2" side of the block 50.8 mm +/-0.002 mm far as I can...

Hi everyone
some good day i realize that the drill chuck that came with my mini-mill was chucking the drills off center, with a closer inspection i notice that one of the three emm dogs? was more worn than the other out, so i assume that the drill chuck was a very cheap one

JorgensenSteam:

still, of the column...

my mini mill is close to my computer, when I work on the mill sometimes i put music, thins like blind faith or guess who, and some metal too
in the other way, my lathe is on the garaje and i don´t have a radio or speakers there, so no music on the lathe, just the cutting noise...
i´m interested in that too
i believe if the spindle is perfectly aligned to the travels of the mill table, you can "rectifier" the surface of the mill table and get if perfeclty true
but im not no shure how to get this in practise...

Hi
I believe the stock bearings in the mini lathe are the same on the mini mill, is a 6206 30x62x16 (Rubber Seals, Self Lubricated)
some people replace the stock bearings for a taper roller bearings types, because they resist more axial strength that the other ones (or something like that...
Thank for the responses!
seem like the problem on this vise desing is more that slips over the mill table that the clamping force..
i´m planing to get this kind of screwless vise:
the reason?
the one that have slots in place of holes is a little more expensive... this one needs a couple of...
