My fixture plates I had planned for my Sharp SVL2416SE-M are not going to work as planned. With my new insert cutter installed I am out of Z axis by about 2". I have a .625" plate bolted to the table top and it ain't going to reach in fact it is not close which means even if I could get it surfaced most of the tooling would also not reach the fixture to make parts. I have some 1" x 2" bar stock I could make feet for the plate but it seems I would lose all the rigidity of the table by spacing it that high above the table.
I am still getting to know this machine and I have to say this one surprised me.Looks like I need to go back to my original plan of using fixtures in my vises.
