[quote="JPG40504"]I do not know if they are "incorrect", only that they differ from my measurements.:) I just 'remeasured' and 7 1/2" and 8 1/2" are the dimensions I got for your 9 1/4" and 8 3/4"!:confused: Also the outside edge of the bench tubes is 3/4" further out (front and rear) from the way tubes(your drawing shows them 7/8").

Notice that we differ on the7 1/2" dimension by the diameter of the tube.]

JPG, et al

Your dimensions are all correct and there are no differences between old and new machines. The differing dimensions that I had recorded were all wrong.

I would really really like for someone to measure the ctr - ctr distance of the 505/510/520 main table tubes. I believe it is wider than the 500, but do NOT know how much. It would 'complete' this thread.

My 1995 Mark V, with the 510 table system, seems to measure out at exactly 15 1/2", center to center.
