Got a new, oversize y axis gib for my bridgeport yesterday. Fitted it, cut
the notch for the gib adjusting screw, drilled for oiling, and it's
working. Now working on cleaning the X axis scale, already did the Y.

Did you blue it up and scrape away material from the middle area so that the
only surface in contact is an inch or two at each end ?
