Well, I feel like an idiot .... OK I am an idiot
I walked away yesterday after getting frustrated. Came in here to whine. Today, getting ready to leave out for California for a week or so. We will be in Big Bear above LA, come on up and enjoy the cool if you want. Anyway. I checked my work ....

Quill lock check, table lock check, bolts on fence tight, check, PH way tube lock, check, table way tube lock, check, spindle set screw on the cutter ..... OH (*&^%^$#.
So lesson learned. Won't have time to ruin more stock until we get back, but lesson learned.
Thanks everyone. The ER is dissembled currently and I am still cleaning her up though her parts are really looking good, she will look brand new when I get done. I will try doing some of this on the ER when I get her back together, cool idea. Great ideas and techniques from all thanks for the help guys! I will try them!
