    Very nice and clean job. I sure it will serve you well.

    Thanks nelson, tramming will confirm that the ol' eyes are still working ok and you havent missed a gap between the table and workpiece. I did tram a couple of times when i first made it and found was out by a country mile once so I used a torch and magnifyer, yep, I'm getting old. So your right, tramming should be done regardless if you wanna make sure
    Cheers stevoh
