Leg spacer to raise head height

Post by MDAnderson »

I have the Mark V. My plan is to use the lathe and drill press option. The lathe Spur drive is to low. I need to raise it 7". I have a couple ideas, but I'm hoping someone has a design of something that mounts at the top of the legs.

Thank you

I retracted the casters and put my 510 on blocks. If you need it to be portable, you could make a simple mobile platform like this |——| (top view) with lockable casters at the corners.
