Bench Top Horizontal Mill Stands/Cabinets
Reorganizing a shop recently bought up questions concerning how to get
more efficient storage around a bench top horizontal mill, in this case a Burke #4 horizontal mill. Any number of similar benchtop mills, both horizontal and vertical, could benefit from this. This mill sometimes can be found on top of a massive cast iron pedestal. While this arrangement serves well for rigidity, it offers absolutely no opportunity for any storage for any of the needed tooling that a horizontal mill needs to do its job. I would be interested in hearing what and how other HSMers have done to provide efficient storage for all those arbors, index heads, collets, end mill holders, etc. that are used. I would also like to hear from anyone who has incorporated this storage in a cabinet or stand that also allows for the horizontal mill itself to sit on. Thanks in advance, TMT |
