Re: A Simple Elevator

How small a mill? We made a full 60" tall "254 style" elevator on a 14" travel knee mill.

It was actually pretty easy on the fabrication side.
It is a SMITHY CX-329

Do you have any advice/documentation on your process? I guess my concern was with tolerances on a 254 style system. Had you built a version of this system before the build season?
