Weiss VM32 Mill Conversion

[picclock]

Y axis start.
Picture 1 original X Y acme screw nuts
picture 2 Ballscrew mounts on saddle. These are 15mm thick (from scrapbox) but 12mm should work.
picture 3 Saddle with nut fitted. To fit to the mill base the mounts/nut must be removed from the saddle to the keeper(post 3 picture 7). After screw is located into the base, the nut and mounts can be attached. The keeper has a 10mm recess to fit the turned down end of the ballscrew to give alignment. The saddle can then be fitted and attached to the mounts with original 8mm screws.

picture 7 Y axis sides for motor mount. Length may be altered depending on coupling ans shaft lengths.
