I recently bought a Rockwell 14 by 40 and the wear on the bed is minimal maybe cause it has hardened ways. However the cross slide had some binding in some areas. Turned out it the slide is convex and ways are concaved. I have read MTR cover to cover several times and scraped for flatness and square a good bit but not for sliding bearing. MTR outlines to start at the CS and I am following that plan. From these pictures can you judge how far from complete I am. I have an average of 10 ppi but not all over. The bearing points are mostly in the center. It is hard to tell from a picture and I know I am not finished, but how much% should the points cover. Thanks.
