Sorry, I am in Massachusetts.

The plywood sounds good. I've got the base on a new skid that I built and
I'll get the plywood today and give it a go.

Thanks,

BW

I finally got moved into my new house and the machines are nestled into

door. There is about 40' of grass to move the stuff over. I moved the
bridgeport head and table on a skid by using rollers under it. It was
quite
a job. I am leery of trying to move the base the same way. Any
suggestions
on moving the base ? There is not enough room to get a large machine in
to
carry it.

Two sheets of 3/4" plywood. Lay the far one under the one the mill is
on. Push to the new sheet, remove the old one, pry up the far end,
stick the new sheet under the one the mill is on, move to this sheet
and repeat. Takes more time to explain than to do.

If I can't come up with three sheets I look to zenith.

The plywood prices are terrible . I use to get large counter tops from
dumpster diving. Their particle board , but 3/4 and laminated on the
other side. After 911 everyone seemed to stop making major screw ups.
I'm sure NAFTA didn't help.
