Dean you know more than anyone that my English are not good
Often i use Google translation



Even (as other say) i use the Greek language very good, i cant say the same about English
So i have no tension to show that i know and use rare words, i just try to find the appropriate word and the only "friend" here is Google. For me was the first time I saw this word (sciolism)
To be more specific the word in Greece is "ημιμάθεια" that come from the words "ημι"=half + "μάθηση"=knowledge, so you could say that "ημιμάθεια"=half knowledge of a subject, and we use that word for people who don’t have a full knowledge of a subject, they know only some aspects of the subject and in the same time they talk as they know everything about it.. Other Greeks that follows the thread I think they know what I mean.

Vagelis your English my friend is better than mine and I know Zero Greek so your way in front.!!

Google gives me two words
#1 Humble
#2 Modest
both words with the first letter capital
You choose which one I should use to characterize you
Lets change «channel». For a moment I thought that we are in a literary forum…

It has been more than 1 1/2 year that i did any progress
Many issues delay and postpone my work
So it is time to restart
One of the big problems that i had was the steel flatness
I had to have them milled. i didnt have the means to do it (not a mill neather a lathe)
After some research i enter a machinery shop. He told me "i don’t have the means to do what you want, but i know someone not professional who can do what you want"
So i meet Kosta. A 65 years old person who is not a professional machinist. He loves machining but as he has another job, he works only Saturdays as a hobby. I cant describe what i saw. The working place was clear as a surgery. No sign of steel chip. The man is perfectionist. Everything more than 2-3/100mm is not acceptable. I think he did better job than a pro. He loves machining.
Conclusion he help me by milling the pieces and he didn’t want to take any money
The x axis plates where zero level on a surface grinder.
This is the result



Also the Gantry plate need to be milled both sides
As his surface grinder (500X200) wasn’t that big he work the piece on the milling machine



Z axis also need to be milled both sides


Last piece the gantry
1180 mm long 280mm wide. Kostas didn't have such big milling table

So i ask a friend of mine who is wood machine constructor to mill the gantry. I went today. He had a 6000mmX1000mm planer ( i don’t know if my word is correct )
He told me that next Thusday it will be ready. I will attach photos of the big machine
Mean while i work on leveling the X axis. It is the point where i stop 1 1/2 year ago
I want to avoid using epoxy. Specially now that i have the x axis plates perfectly milled so i could easier check level between rails
Very painful job. It is very important to find the higher spot and start from that spot, else you have to go on from the beginning




I will keep you informed
Thanks for your time
Feel alive now that i restart
