at this point everyone must be going rough or what
what ive got is a cross slide and top slide off a scrap lathe which im gonna convert into a vertical slide for my lathe
but im going to have to weld the top part of the cross slide to a heavy angle iron this way i get more angle adjustment if you see what i mean
anyhow i tacked it tonight at home with my tig seemed to flow ok but i'll go and use a big mig tomorrow anyhow question is
will it weld ok which will be best mig or stick welder wouldve preferred to bolt it but theres no room
might have to weld on a vice mount onto top slide as well but as that will be in view will look a bit more in to bolting that on
