Default Milling on the lathe Vertical tslot table or vertical milling vise?

I didn't explain that very well. I meant that even though the table was
listed on the MLA web site, they hadn't been able to get any castings the
last time I checked. Things may well be different now as that was at least
two years ago.

It looks like there is one there meant for the atlas but they make you buy
the atlas table then the base and the milling slide instead of the
southbend where the base is optional

Though i'd love to have a second set of eyes confirm that

have any of the Atlas T--slotted cross-slides for sale. Check first
before getting your hopes up.

Thank you for this information. It will go on my gift list.

machined to fit the Atlas as well.


They offer one made for the Atlas.
