Default Burke Millrite Spindle Bearings Access Plug

It's amazing how tight you can fit up wood joinery when you gauge lengths
off to the nearest thou.


Isn't it though?


Using the mill for routing operations on smaller
wood working projects is something I'll be doing more of in the future and
you've got me looking at how best to mount my die grinder up to the
quill/head of the Millrite.

We have a two century-old home in New England, and I save all the old
material
when we make any changes to it. The sub-flooring is called hard red
pine, and now it's
petrified, but man, it's beautiful. Now this is the stuff that was
too hard - lots of knots - to
plane smooth back then, but it's no match for a fly cutter on a
vertical mill.

You really think that wood chips are bad for the ways? I clean them
off from
time to time, but they seem pretty harmless compared to steel.
