Milling machine renovation

[Bsmith]

Just thought I would let @blackolive (Ste) see the SIP milling machine that I have, looks the same as his one that is in the sale section.
Pics of what it was like when I bought it and after a tidy up and more substantial stand made from scaffold tubes etc.

Mine is labled SIP blackolive Ste's is PInnacle, I'm almost sure they are the same.

How did welding of the scaffold tubes go?

No extra issues to welding any pipes, done with 6013's, being aware of where the galvi fumes go.

Is that a similar machine?

Yes, a slightly smaller column, at 92mm, compared to the RF30 which is 100mm.
