Re: Slitting on a Unimat SL? #db200

If you make up or buy some indicator holders, you can do a bit better than eyeballing, though it is a bit more difficult on the Unimats. Something like Harvey's vertical lead screw, or there are others on the group.?/g/Unimat/album?id=195752?is the one I found first. I believe this is a little earlier model:?/g/Unimat/album?id=195774 But as Guy said, you could use a hacksaw, too! Some folks want to make stuff for their tools, some folks want to use the tools, and some folk like to do both...? Bill in OKC William R. Meyers, MSgt, USAF(Ret.) Aphorisms to live by: Good judgement comes from experience. Experience comes from bad judgement.? SEMPER GUMBY! Physics doesn't care about your schedule. The only reason I know anything is because I've done it wrong enough times to START to know better. Expect in one hand, expectorate in the other. See which one gets full first.

Thanks Bill, that makes sense. So then vertical mill mode, vise on the cross sled. I guess the hard part is getting the piece clamped level and eyeballing the height of the slitting blade.
