As I look at all the conversions for small mills like the x2 I see a mix of aluminum and steel parts. I am planing a similar conversion and was wondering if mixing these causes any corrosion problems? I was planing on all the machined parts being aluminum because I can machine it fairly easy. However they will be bolted to the cast iron machine and probably mild steel parts mixed in as well.
I did some searching here and on google. Found lots of info saying its bad and special precautions need to be taken. At the same time I see lots of builds here that mix the two with no isolation.
Thank you.
