Bazmak-Simple T nuts/studs for sieg mill

[bazmak]

The sieg sx2 has 12w slots for M10 studs.Made quite a few but always seem to want more.When i got the Sc4 lathe,part of the package was a quality faceplt
and with it came a clamping kit.Unfortunatly it was M12,so i put it to one side
I later realized that taking a light skim off the M12 hex hd bolts gave a perfect fit for the 12w T slots on the mill,so i can now use M10 and M12 fixings and the clamping kit

Baz,

Nice fix.

It seems there is a large variation in tables on these X2 type mills.

The one I have (Super X2P) has 8mm slots and uses 6mm studs. I was lucky and found a supplier in France who had full clamping kits, and even with delivery costs came cheaper than the restricted sets we can get in the UK.
