One day you might actually learn how to write the English language,
was even simple punctuation not taught to you at school? :~(

Steve,

>but as you say
>the micrometer round the back for raising the knee seems hardly ideal.

I've just re-jigged my workshop so that the left side of the Centec 2A
is easily reached. That's after living for several years with a
cupboard adjacent to the left side of the mill and almost requiring
binoculars to read the knee dial :-)

Risers for the vertical head are probably the next thing for me to get
or make, since the lack of vertical space under the quill head can be
a problem, especially when using a Clarkson holder.

Jim.
