I ending up having to machine the sides flat so I could hold them well enough to remove the 1/8" off material it took to square them up. I went ahead and cut both surfaces to 90* because they were bowed about .020". They are dang near perfect now. Have fun!

Thanks David, I'll keep and eye out for them. I added this little feature today, some Starrett self adhesive measuring tape for the slides. I'll add it on the other side when I get it finished and everything is squared up and permanent.

Doug what I like about the tape measure is that you can get them that reads from left to right or right to left I have the part #s at work we use them on saw tables.

That is too nice to be in the shop.
Make a glass top for it, put in the kitchen for big dinners!
Nice work!
