Hey everyone! We’ve always aimed to introduce this spindle kit for the LongMill and appreciate your enthusiasm for its availability. However due to manpower constraints, we prioritized Altmill compatibility, and we did not want to announce official support for this item on the LongMill until it has been fully vetted. We’re currently 70% through our due diligence process and expect to complete it by the end of June with no major obstacles at this time. Comprehensive details will be shared in a blog post by then, so we recommend waiting for this update before purchasing. We’ve already placed a bulk order with our spindle supplier to prevent any potential shortages, and please note that AltMill spindle kit units will be shipped out first.
(I got the truck, now I’m eager) Still not certain, and the wait for the Altmill is killing me, but I think this spindle will be fine for what I want to do. I wonder if it can be made to run backwards at 1200RPM?
Okay, now I’m tapping my foot. If I order an Altmill today, June 24th, what’s the likely shipping date? (I already waited 4 1/2 months for my truck, so I’m a patient man…) Yea, I’ll want the spindle package. And just to be a pain in the neck, can Leave off the legs? I have a stout table with vacuum. Last thing, is my card charge full price when I place the order? Looks like a great system, eager to run it.
