Yeah my lathe will be sitting high too. But I am also over 6'. It should put the cross slide wheel right at my elbow..... in theory..... (In theory communism works though) The left chamber will get some shelves and the right chamber is getting a tool chest. I think it will look sharp when its done.

Starting to look like a stand :)

lol, that is narrow :) BUT, when we moved my Mill it was just 2 guys and a dolly. One above, one below. You could get something like my mill down there, no problem. (Mind you my stairs and stair well is not developed) ((My mill is equiv to the King PDM30)) Interesting question though as I dont...

Buy the bigger one. Complain to wife how your mill is too small. Buy a new mill to fit the rotary table ;) (I know, I know. Im loads of help)

Ha, I JUST came back in from the warehouse putting a piece of uni-strut on the back. So I got that part covered.

Thanks for the post John. I will for sure be posting pictures of it put back together on its new stand in its new home ;) What oil is currently in the headstock, apron and gearbox?

The headstock and all adjustment screws have been left in place so the alignment currently should stay preserved. BUT, if I have to remove the headstock or re-align the head stock I am not too worried about it. I got a few people in my circle that have done it before and can help me out.

Here it is in its stripped down state

Yes, I am sure it is possible. Just not my skill and we are at the point now where we can just brute force our way through it..... i hope....

Only if I removed the headstock. there is no good way to put it on the handtruck. Plus I would have to drain on the fluids too because it would be tipped on end and as you can see the oil topic is causing a fantastic debate but left me scratching my head a bit.
