saddle measurements
Hi All,
I need some additional data on the Hercus saddle dovetails. It seems that there is some differences in the dovetail width on the early Hercus 9's and the rest of the hercus 9 and 260's, up to about 0.035". This makes it hard to know which version to supply for the extended cross slide and thread stop. If I make them to fit all generations, there is a lot of unwanted space between the gib and the cross slide.
I need owners of early model 9's, up to machine 8000, to take accurate measurements as per the attached pic.
