So finally got the $100 B&S MM Series II up and running. It grinds pretty darn well. Everything seems to be functioning as it's supposed to, all auto functions are working. The stepper is controlling the head elevation beautifully; can easily bump tenths and it doesn't drop, rock solid. I got a start on grinding the mag chuck today but didn't get it finished. Ran out of time.
The only issue I've noticed is that the cross feed seems a little wonky. When set for 3/16" sometimes it will feed 3/16" and sometimes a lot less... Unless it's my imagination, seems to happen more frequently near the ends of table cross travel. Any of you fellas had this issue and fixed it? The ops and maintenance manual give a couple things to check, I'll be delving into those ASAP.
