As other reviewer’s stated, the table did not initially tilt the full 45°. I expected this, and decided it was worth the trouble for the price. I also noticed sharp edges particularly on the underside of the casting. Mine did not have the rocking problem others described. I did not measure the flatness, but it sits flat on my milling machine, on both top and bottom faces. As far as the angular travel, the slots in the cylindrical face for the locking bolts run out of travel. I got around this simply by rotating the T-nuts 90 degrees so they don’t nest down into the slots. Next, the pillow block interferes and requires a large chamfer. Hey! I have just the fixture now to hold it at 45 degrees! After using itself to machine the corner off one pillow block, it gets just over 45 degrees travel in one direction now. I think that will be good enough. If I ever need the travel both directions, I’ll just remove both pillow blocks and tilt it manually.
