This is the vertical slide setup I used on my minilathe. I think that the vertical slide was a Machine Mart one and I drilled and tapped the cross slide to fit it. The first picture is milling a cavity in an oil reservoir. The second one is the set up I used for milling camshafts. The depth for each cut is set using the DTI and the G cramp keeps everything a bit more rigid.
