Easy to machine, and I have some. Actually so do I. Table is back on. Tapered Gib adjusted and then locked with the screw on the opposite end. I can just push it from one end to the other and there are no noticeable tight spots. For now I'll leave the overflowchannel until I'm ready to install the pump oiler. First all the other little CNC conversion items need to be done but at least I now have measurements for the lead screw nut and I have to think about either making a new one that can be adjusted to remove the 0.023" or so worth of backlash or just go Ball Screws. Photo shows just how cheezy this is.
In either case, that's when I'll do the pump oiler and look clearly at how to lubricate the dovetails. Thanks everyone. Merry Christmas. John
