Geared Mills

Hi GSS,
Mate if you have the money get yourself a geared mill with dove tail slides, they are stronger and more accurate than the round slide models wth pulleys. Pulleys slip and do not control the speed of the spindle accurately enough if you are doing large work. Have a look at www.machineryhouse.com.au which have a great variety of mills big and small. Also where you have looked on Ebay and check out ozmestore 1 who also sell great lathes and smaller mills, both geared and belt driven. Cheers Shane (Raymond Terrace)
