Clausing 8520 milling machine
Has anyone out there ever fittted a Clausing 8520 milling machine with a DRO? I am considering installation of a 2 axis (X, Y) DRO... if this is not a major task that will require extreme modification to the machine. If there are any machinists that have done this, and you don't mind sharing the det...

How large of a pump are you talking about? Do you have drawings? What materials are needed?

Re: CDCO Machinery Corporation
stevec, Thanks for the input. When I said , "I need...", maybe I should have said, "hope for". CDCO's claim of .0004 TIR for the chuck may be possible, but I know that the QC of unknown Chinese manufacturers can be hit-and-miss at best. Using a chuck with a machined backing plate...
