No plans to CNC in the near term, I feel like I have a lot of learning to do since I am brand new to the mill. I would love to CNC sometime in the future if I start doing minor production work. Who knows, things can change very fast.

I ran the mill for quite a while today and still no oil leak! I do feel like I understand a lot more of how it works. It was actually good to get inside it and see what goes on in that box (even though I would have rather not had to go through all of that).

Now I need to fix the Z axis bind at the bottom of the column. I need to drill the holes out on the plate that holds the Z axis handle so there is a tiny bit of slop in it. That should take care of that problem. Its not a show stopper right now since I can just loosen the bolts and it takes care of most of the problem.
