very nice.

What I would do for the screws, is use a flush mounted hex screw. The ones that are flat on top and have a chanfer on the underside. That way you dont weaken it if U totally countersink the screws. I wish I had some pics of what I am talking about, if I remember, I will take some tonight, I did it in my very first open chamber block I made.

So, both top and block are totally flat? with only the gasket in the middle? that has some potential.

man I wish that My T mill software would run my desktop mill. I really like it. is that what U use to make your G code? or do U use some other CAM software?
