Ok, that was great. I clearly missed a few things here when setting up my RF45 (2018 almost new). Locking up the head does cause quite a few thou deflection so I see why it's important. I was lucky enough to talk to Stephan Gotswinter a few months ago on a youTube live thing he had going on. He's got an RF45 as well and we discussed rigidity issues with the mill.

What's the best way to secure the machinists square to the table when checking these things?

[@David_Best]

Either a strong magnet setup or a strap clamp like the type you’d use to secure raw material directly to the table for milling operations.
