A Haas is also well beyond the budget of most people on this group. Their
centres, too, easily run into hundreds of thousand each.

I have been in conctact with a machine tool manufacturer claiming such
tolerances and their manuals only claim the specifications under certain
outlined thermal conditions. The spindles are also thermally managed to
limit reaction.

I have yet to hear of anyone running a knee mill at home claiming micron
accuracies.
