Hi,
I'm awaiting delivery of a Warco VMC and have a problem in that the floor where it's going to go is on a slight slope. The floor is concrete and slopes from back to front a bit less than an inch in 24 inches. My first thoughts regarding this were to shim under the mill where the hold-down bolts go, but I've had second thoughts and wondered about laying a concrete "pad" somewhat bigger than the mill footprint to level the floor just where the mill will go.
Has anyone here faced a similar problem in the past ? And specifically, what are the chances that a new layer of concrete, say 3 inches thick, will bond to a 20 year old coincrete floor ?
What would you do ?
Thanks,
David
