You're going to use this on a minimill? Which minimill is that?
Are we talking 150 Lb Chinese minimill or 850 Lb? It makes a difference.



FWIW, I bought one of these (R8 TP insert holder) for my old Bridgeport 1J
head machine. The machine wouldn't take it. I guess its for sale if someone
wants one.


You mean your BP did not have the power or rigidity to drive it?

The one i got was 1.25". I figured to use it to face things flat. I
realize I won't be hogging large chunks of metal with it, but I figure I
can shave off .010 per half-width pass.
