looks like super-andy gave this mill a hard time

so... you wanted belt drive and it seems that the mill wanted it too

maybe the timing is a bit inconvenient, but you won't remember it a year from now

So the problem was that the big end got caught in the thingymajig.

Hope you get it sorted, or your milling days might be over.

Hi Andy, I think this failure is a message from the Universe.

Buy something better with CNC control!

Did this failure result from relocating the mill?

I feel your pain brother.

it would seem the mill is back up and running.

i took the z movements part to bits and all seemed fine. put it all back together and i have movement. so not sure what the problem is/was.

so for the moment im back milling, but im going to keep and eye on it.

Cool, maybe the cogs were jammed?

Wear pants just in case.
