Setting Up My PM935 Mill

[PixMan]

I'm grateful to have a walk-in cellar shop at my son's home down the road, but looking forward to a late 2016 or (more likely) spring 2017 move to put it in my OWN walk-in cellar. There are problems and there are benefits. While the door to get in at my home is wide, it's not the 72" like the current shop. Mine is a couple inches shorter, though I have asphalt pavement right to the same-level cement floor. Rolling machines in will be easier although there is a slope to the driveway. Once I get inside, most of the cellar here has a lower ceiling, only my mill is tall enough for concern. I do have a drop in part of the floor for the area where my (brandy new) furnaces live, that's where the mill will have to go. Of course the entry door prevents me from getting almost any better 3 axis CNC mill.

The other limitation I have is POWER. My home is a two-family. In the course of upgrading the heating systems, I discovered that my tenant has 200 amp service. My 100 amp service is to upgraded to 200 in the coming weeks. If I go through the pains of moving my shop the 7-1/2 miles west, I'm committed to staying in this house "til death do us part." Obviously the BIG benefit will be having my shop just down two flights of stairs (for now, later just one.)

So back on-topic Ed, what's the latest status of your epic disassembly/reassembly?
