    Non-Marring Carriage Stop

    Needed carriage stop numerous times but always was too lazy to make one. Also didn't have big enough piece of any material to make it from. Cut block 100 x 65 x 35 mm out of big teflon round bar (dia 120 mm) and that was used for body of carriage stop. Teflon will definitely not damage ways and it is strong enough for this purpose. No drawing was made and couple of measurements were taken only. It was an easy job which was completed in 5 hours.

    Hey You finished it, great job!
    Looks like that will solve your carriage stop problem, incorporating the dial indicator was a nice addition
