I happened to notice that this thread has currently consumed 44 pages (based upon the default number of posts per page) and to the best of my knowledge, not a solitary chip has been produced!
I checked the thread on my Kondia mill and noticed that after 2 years and nine months and a total of 36 pages, I completely rebuilt my machine and made some chips. I know that you have been unwell but now that you are back in the land of the living, I am throwing down the gauntlet! We all want to see some chips.
No pressure
The challenge is accepted. I plan on taking Friday off, if work allows me, to get ready for Saturday. My brother is coming over and we're going to attempt to get the main casting down into the basement. If all goes well I hope to have the mill all back together by the end of the day Sunday, if I remember where all of the pieces go.
Making chips will probably be some days after that since I need to get the VFD enclosure and hookup all done before I can run the mill.

P.S. Oh, and the 44 pages is just to make it difficult for anyone else to break my record.
