Re: 1720XMTC shoptask z axis Ballscrews

I went though some old pictures that I took of Chuck machine but most of them were on his White pre 1998 Gold machine. I Did find a picture of the quill set up on the white machine but it was different than I remembered his Gold machine. It didn't use a ballscrew. I did find some interesting pictures of his CNC tail stock mods using a tool turret and some other ones of the V8 engine he built.
