As I am working out some of the details in my head, I think I am going to need new way covers. Any suggestions? |

Especially what are the differences in the dovetail dimensions. Not a chance that the original table will work with it is there? --- End quote --- The new base is here. I will take pictures this evening when I can get into the shop. I didn't do any precision measurements yet. Done quickly... The ways are the same width but are longer. The width of the base is the same. It is about 2.25" longer however. More later. |

I planned to pull it apart to adjust/clean everything and then tram it but I might wait a little while to see how this thread pans out. So hurry up and finish! :bow: --- End quote --- Which version of the X2 do you have? |

It is nice to see that I could get at least another inch out of the y axis and maybe even two. There have been numerous times I could have used the extra inch. |
