Hello gents. I was originally going to get a Mini Mill 2, but the HFO sales guy talked me into a TM-2P. Twice the x travel, 2" more Z travel, and for less than $1k additional, with the current discounts.
40x16x16 TM-2P
20x16x14 Mini Mill 2
The print diagram shows that the rear electrical/control-cabinet enclosure needs to be 36" away from the wall, so it can hinge open. Space is a limitation in my current setup. I feel that 18" is adequate to get behind the machine if necessary. Could one simply take the hinges off the door if you needed to get into the enclosure? I realize that I'll also have to make the electrical connections in here once the machine is initially set, so I'm rather curious about this. Anybody have any hands-on experience with Haas control enclosure cabinets?
Thanks guys
