Dimensions Are Missing For Elite Foreman

Dimensions Are Missing For Elite Foreman

For the two smaller machines there are nice complete dimensions, but they are missing for the Foreman. I would like to build my “table” before assembling the machine.

Images shown are directly from the manual. Yes I know they say they are not necessarily perfect. I can plan around “some” adjustment.

No, I do not want to buy the company legs and spoil board frame. They will not suit my application.

As you can see the information for the Foreman is not as detailed as for the smaller machines. Page 20 of the manual does show a GROSS over all dimension for the Foreman, but it does not show the same level of detail as the smaller machines. I’ve downloaded the manual three times now. Twice in the last ten minutes. The picture I already posted is the picture from the manual.

Well, hopefully somebody has more information I can find later, but I’ve spent the spare time I had today. I need to get into the machine room and get some paying jobs qued up on the milling machines.

Roger Walters (Not Onefinity*) had a good answer on the Facebook group.

Pull the dimensions from the QCW data.

Thank you Roger.

  • Onefinity on Facebook had the same response I saw elsewhere. Basically (paraphrasing and extrapolating) build an oversize (62 x 62) table and let the parts fall where they may. Then they linked to the manual page 20 where the picture I already posted came from.

Again, thank you Roger. You nailed it. (Close enough.)

On review of the drawing a couple of the dimensions still look they are taken from “other” points. Well, I guess that’s as good as its going to get.
