I am wanting to rotate the head of my Bridgeport mill to 50 degrees to machine a side wall on a slot parallel to the Y axis.

#0183;#32;The easiest way is to put your biggest collet in and chuck up on a piece of stock with it. Then clamp the stock tightly with your vice. that way when you remove the 4 nuts that hold the head to the knuckle you can just crank the table away from the ram and the head will be supported.

I have several round ram machines and had planned to install the new head on one of these machines. The S/N of the Bridgeport is: .
