Hi guys,

Don't forget there are 3 parts you have to produce if you want to copy these CR boxes... See pic:

The spindle, the roller but also the main axes. It is different from a standard box one.

- This one is difficult to make.

- The roller is quite easy.

- The spindle is very expensive.

See the bottom row. I was lucky to find a brand new spindle of a CR. I had the roller made. But I still can't reproduce a new box without the main axes...

All that said, there is a guy not far from here (Belgium) working on reproducing them. I'll keep you informed when they become available.

Best regards,

Tom
