I took a look useing the search feature in both this and the bridgeport forum but all I can seem to find is to adjust util there is a little drag. Well i cleaned everything up and put the knee back on and seem to be sending the knee gib to china so to speak. I can still easily raise and lower the table and have been cranking away with no sign of things starting to drag. I was thinking of putting an indicator on the top of the gib with the base on the knee and see if the gib is moving with the knee or if there is some small amout of slack in it still. Will this give any useful info or just keep cranking on the gib til it filally has a little drag. me and my old back are getting a wee bit tired cranking. Only other thought was to put an indiator between the knee and column and see if there is any movement( towards or away from the column) at all when I raise and lower the knee or just give it a good tug.
