5068 forum posts 3 photos	Recently found a batch of alloy tooling plate sub tables for Tom Senior milling machines. I had these cut ages ago with the idea of machining them up with a series of tapped holes to use as sub plates on the bed. Unfortunately in the depths of time I have lost the piece of paper that went with them that had the number and width of the tee slots on it which I need to lay out the holding bolts. Anyone willing to have a quick measure up and post a reply please ?

728 forum posts 90 photos	Hi John, my TS light vertical mill table is 6.309 wide by 28-1/4 long. Has three slots 0.5 wide, and then the two centre lands are 1.500 wide each. The outer lands at the edge of the table are 0.905 wide. If you add up the lands and slots you don't quite get the total of 6.309, maybe my digital un-verniers need calibrating! HTH Simon
