Guides for installing and setting up a mill?
An interstate friend of mine has just bought a cheap mill from an online seller, and has had it delivered. But he hasn't setup a mill before, and so is constantly asking me questions about how he should go about it. To make it worse last time i was around up there his lathe was basically eating itself to death on casting sand as it hadnt been cleaned before use. Plus he is on Coronavirus shutdown and has plenty of time on his hands at home.
Does anyone know of a good online guide/resource for machinery installation? Covering things like cleaning off shipping grease, the tramming up the ways, shimming the base square etc.
Basically something I can send him to follow so I don't get constantly interrupted with more questions.
