Yup, I see that now. Too late, I'm done with that feature but I'll remember that next time, I think.
Thanks for the tip.

That's what I do in such a case. Works fine.

You could eat off that lathe Ed! Nice work.

What type of lubrication should be used with this needle bearing? I'm assuming grease since re-lubing it would mean removing the power feed from the mill table.

I used Lubriplate (white lithium grease) on mine Ed. Coat the bevel gears with it too.

Good, I have a tube of that and was going to use it.

Looking great Ed!
Being far too anal, I would run around the big square piece with a corner rounding cutter to smooth it out. Then I'd be at it with my ScotchBrite wheel to make it look more like a casting. I might even look for an anodizer to get it some cool color.
