Over n the Onefinity forum, a fellow was greasing his system, and had to remove the spindle to access the fitting! Have you mitigated this issue with your design? Because yeah, I'll copy it.😀

Scratch that; I'm following along on that thread over at the forum. Thank you for blazing the path.

Hey here TmToronto ... what does your Z gantry do for Z travel? I am finding another 3-6" would be nice.

Hi! I forgot to add that info to the description - it was one reason for me designing the new assembly. I have my Y rails on 80 mm extrusions. The distance from the bottom of the X axis block to the top of my cast aluminum table is about 210 mm. With my design, my longest end mill (stick-out of ~50 mm from ISO20 holder) will reach down ~3 cm above the table - not a problem as I use fixture plates etc... that are well above the table. When fully raised this same end mill will clear/be above the bottom of the X axis block. I measured my new total Z spindle travel to be ~180 mm (~7"). I am happy with that as a few extra centimetres in my machine design makes a difference, and more importantly it is providing a much more robust double spindle mount.
