Hi People, Nearly "Happy New Year",
This is a shopsmith question, so if you feel it is not relevant,
please feel free to delete the topic!
When you have raised the SS bed to its vertical position, for say,
pillar drill operations, how do you move the motor up/down the way
rails without the weight of the motor crashing down?
Other than lowering the machine to horizontal mode each time you want
to adjust the distance of the chuck from the table, (which is
what you are supposed to do but is bit of a pain) how do you Chaps get
over this problem? Though, I suspect you all have the strength to
heave the motor and lock it in position all quite easily!!
I am thinking it needs something like the 'notched' tubes that move
the horizontal pillar drill table in and out.
But to make something (that doesn't involve welding) that could move
the weight up/down in small controlled increments.
Perhaps a scissor jack on the table?
