Review on Upgrade Your Mini Lathe With A Z Type Cast Iron Angle Plate & Mini Vertical Milling Slide Mount by Timothy Spinner

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Solid little piece.

Fast shipping and mounted just fine on my Harbor Freight 7x14 lathe. You'll need to get creative on your milling vice.Only downside is if you need to go past center, you'll need to find a way to move your post. You can get to center, but you can't go past center. Limits small milling jobs significantly.

Pros
  • The Mini Vertical Milling Slide Mount is incredibly versatile, allowing you to easily add all sorts of attachments and accessories to your mini lathe, helping you take on projects that you might never have thought possible with your current setup, providing your work with a level of precision and accuracy that will truly set it apart
Cons
  • The added cost of purchasing and installing the Z Type Cast Iron Angle Plate and Mini Vertical Milling Slide Mount may not be worth it for hobbyists or occasional users of the mini lathe, as it may only provide marginal improvements in performance
