    Hi,

    I have just about finished retro fitting a mill.

    I found the easiest way to make a mount was to use 100mm box section.
    It had 4mm walls so was very rigid and thick enough to tap M5 threads directly into it. Just needed facing on 2 sides.

    The below is from the Y axis, the nuts and bolts are not the finished ones, just to test alignment.

    regards

    Melee
