This the base and top of my cross slide. The base appears to be made from quality steel and the top is cast iron.
The problem is as I advance the the cross slide it gets tight. I dont think its an adjustment problem.
I think the top is slightly bowed. You can just make out scuff marks each side at the top of the top photo.
My question is...With a good quality file, could I slide it back and forth to flatten off the high spot.
If the idea is feasible I'd probably need a half round so I could get it into the wedge.
