Great tip on the face mill holder! Nikken's have a 1.19" gage length, quite a bit shorter than anything else I've been able to find as well.
Everyone on this thread has pretty much gotten me convinced that short side-locks are the way to go for heavy cutting.
Careful with the LyndexNikken face mill adapters. Some of them need to be modified to clear the ATC grippers or ATC arm. Not a big deal but something to watch out for. I threw a $1000 face mill with PCD inserts once. Dooooh!
