Need to build a couple stands for 11x27 benchtop lathe and benchtop mill.
My thoughts are to make the lathe stand as one rigid box as opposed to the
more common separate pedestal style to make use of storage space. Want to
use 4 x 4 wood for rails on top and steel plates on top of 4 x 4's for
headstock and tailstock mounting, while leaving area in between open for
custom tray with drain to catch coolant. With this type of design would it
be better to shim under the lathe itself as opposed to leveling the stand
to eliminate twist? Would it be good to put some material such as
sorbothane between lathe and stand?
