After a good cleaning and check up, your break-in video is really important, then the machine will run great. Thanks for sharing!

[@IDCWoodcraft]

As always, Great Video! Thank you for taking the time to put these videos together. I will save this to follow along for each deep cleaning.

Just did a cleanup on my longmill. Didn't do a full tear down since don't have the hours on mine. Good to see complete job for down the road. Ready to get work again

brians6055, right on brother! I am excited for you to get everything back and started up!

Good job Garrett. Is there a video that show cases the LongMill putting the 2.2kw Water Cooled spindle through its paces? I saw the one with the AltMil and it's very impressive. I'm considering the water cooled spindle for my LongMill and would like to see how well the LOngMill holds up moving the spindle at high rates off feeds and speeds.

ssddcc, Thanks for the kind words! Here is a link to a video that should really help you: kzbin.info/www/bejne/bIW1gn2ZaMyrZrMsi=p_9nZ4-P1yJIh_7X While I dont test the spindle to its true limits I do show you how to install one. Hope it helps brother!

@@IDCWoodcraft Thanks Garrett. Do you think the 2.2 kw is too much spindle for the Longmill?

Do you have any thoughts on the Altmill?

[@IDCWoodcraft]

Not-a-GSD, I like it brother! I am looking into picking up one very soon.

@@IDCWoodcraft Do you know if it will be able to run the C, Y, Z and Rotary Axis simultaneously?
