hello I am :smart: for ideas for a different type of compound cross slide for my taig. I have a craftsman 109 and the setup is so simple and neat. I want to incorporate that design to my taig with mods, but the darn clearance is the issue. Anyone know of others attempts or defeat with this build? The one from taig was a pain right from the beginning keeping it tight, moving it...etc. I do think this could be one of the greatest mods for this mighty little machine. johnny |

hello all This is challenging it seems. But I got a good start on it! What bothers me the most is the idea that I want to use the slide as my regular cutter base. This has to be built some what rigid or it isn't worth the time. :smart: |

Did I mention I love making dovetails? |

Hiya Johnny... How about some pictures of what you are doing? Tell us more about the design. Eric |

Johnny, you have obviously found a flaw in the design of the standard compound slide, but for those of us who don't own a Taig it's hard to suggest a solution unless you describe the problem. As Eric more politely put it, :worthless: Andy |
