Hi Luis,
I posted message 27531 on 7/15/2001 that highlights my experience
with the MK kits and an Enco mill. Bottom line; if you are going to
go with the MK kits, purchase a Bridgeport mill. Then you can either
mount the kit parts directly to the Bridgeport or use the Bridgeport
to modify the kit parts so that they actually fit the Enco.
