The journey towards a functional milling machine continues..
I have covered the last major piece in need of scraping, the table
Planned to do the top first flat, then do the bearing surfaces (flats/dovetails) measured against the table on parallels on the granite plate, then fit this to to the saddle, run tests and see if I needed to correct/had some issues. Story is depicted in following 4-5 videos..

Of course, like before, I am only an amateur, and as this is a learning process, there is some trial and error along the way (and mishaps..). However, as we have learnt: be a detective.., in this case it was especially important to find the references, and measure so you can plan your steps ahead and actually monitor your progress.
