Wow, that was some beautiful craftsmanship in your posts. I can't wait to see the finished brake now. I should probably take some lessons from you on your brake project. I have a 300 win mag that is a cheap rifle but with no brake it does beat a guy up if you shoot it too much.
As for your dad I think you and I are in the same boat. My dad gave me the shirt off his back growing up and I owe him a whole lot. But now that I am a dad myself I can see where he gets the love... passing the love my parents gave to me on down to my son is the best way I know to show my appreciation to them for all they did and gave up for me. But for now let your parents know how much you appreciate them and that is the best thank you any parent can ever get.
Did you ever solve this problem? It sound to me like the bearing that is right behind the cross slide handle on the apron needs to be tightened up.As a side note, there is about 20 thousanths of movement I can't seem to remove from the cross slide. It seems to be independant of the backlash and only results from direct force applied to the cross slide. If that is confusing, I will turn the dial towards me say 5 turns, then reverse direction several turns (backlash is most certainly taken up) then pull towards myself from the far end, and it will slip and than catch with about 20 thousandths of movement. I can then turn the dial the same direction and it continues without taking up any backlash.

No I havent fixed that. I havent yet been able to get the apron all the way apart or remove the lead screw. It hasnt been a huge issue and im trying to get everything squared away for Christmas before I go back in and try again.Did you ever solve this problem?
