Wrt overarm support for horiz mill

So I'm assuming that when running the 1" arbor I
set up the spacers and cutter as needed and put the arbor nut on the outside
of the roller bearing using the inner race of the roller bearing as the last
spacer.

? I don't know. But, seems to me the spacer/cutter setup should be locked up
independent of the outer-end bearing support for the arbor.
The old way was to have a dead center bearing on the arbor end, just as with a
lathe tailstock. The bearing had nothing to do with the spacer/cutter setup.
