RE: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] Re: Motor Brackets

John,

I thought about the tap and drill approach but this seemed like overkill
for such a simple issue. Know I know this is a legitimate approach I may
try that.

I'll check out the photos. I like the sound of the off the shelf
approach!

Thanks

Phil

Two ways to remove keys Phil. One is to tap on the end with a sharp

insert a jack screw to extract it.
Not knowing what type of mill you have you can have a look in the
photos section on the web site at some files near the end marked Taig
xx.
This is the design I chose to use to reduce overhang and cheap off
the shelf drive components.
