Hi Willie,
I would be concerned how you have your mill mounted on the leveling feet. All of the weight is on the small areas around the four bolt holes in the casting instead of being distributed along the bottom edge of the mill base casting. I'd be concerned about cracking the casting. Unless I'm not fully understanding how you have the leveling feet attached to your mill. That's why I was looking at using some steel plate to set the mill onto and then threading the plate for the leveling feet. Obviously I'm no mechanical engineer so I'm probably way off base.
