I secure this to the bed of the milling table using a double layer of double-sided tape (of course you can use hardware if the slots line up).

As long as I'm spending your money buy a small digital angle finder and impress yourself with your new accurate milling.

Already have the digital angle scale...love it! Any more suggestions on spending my money, let me know

Brad take it from my experience and a pile of rejected hawse timbers - normal double sided tape wont hold with more powerful mill like a sherline or taig. I use this one with success and left behind the frustration.

Thanks, I will give that a try!

Isopropyl alcohol will usually release the tape with the added benefit that it won't raise the grain in the wood. We do it all the time in the furniture industry.

Awesome, I have a bottle of that, so will give it a try.

Again, appreciate the advice from those with much more experience and ideas than I have!

Love what you're doing here, Brad. Not sure if you have a thickness sander available, but that might also be an alternative to milling.

This is how I made the first Cant frame. It's also when I decided to get the Sherline Mill. It worked but I think the mill is easier to setup and repeat parts.

Thanks!
