Don, my brother, it's a BBQ weekend for me, 14 hours and 240 slabs of ribs and near 300 pounds of pulled pork today and I still got tomorrow to go. I'm taking off Sunday thru Thursday this week and when I get to the shed, I'll do the same( if I can move) Is it moving that much with the quill retracted and by just finger pressure? Is this with the quill locked also?Rib Bone
Looks like some casting porosity and a piss poor machining job. Should be less than .001 clearance unlocked....less if it's a Bridgeport.Quill should be chromed I think too.Dave
